Total tax paid
GH₵ 3,955
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer GH₵ 1,856 to pay you GH₵ 14,280. In other words, every time you spend GH₵ 10 of your hard-earned money, GH₵ 2.77 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
24.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 14.7% tax rate now rises to 24.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
