Total tax paid
€ 177
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 7.25 to pay you € 279. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 6.33 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
61.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 60.7% tax rate now rises to 61.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1% higher than what it seemed at first.
