Total tax paid
GH₵ 8,099
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer GH₵ 3,394 to pay you GH₵ 26,108. In other words, every time you spend GH₵ 10 of your hard-earned money, GH₵ 3.10 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
27.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 18% tax rate now rises to 27.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
