Total tax paid
GH₵ 15,250
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer GH₵ 6,018 to pay you GH₵ 46,296. In other words, every time you spend GH₵ 10 of your hard-earned money, GH₵ 3.29 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
29.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 19.9% tax rate now rises to 29.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
