Total tax paid
€ 168
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 8.84 to pay you € 340. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 4.95 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
48.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 46.9% tax rate now rises to 48.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
