Total tax paid
46,905 LL
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 35,775 LL to pay you 159,000 LL. In other words, every time you spend 10 LL of your hard-earned money, 2.95 LL goes to the government.
Real tax rate
24.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 7% tax rate now rises to 24.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 17.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
