Total tax paid
817,419 FCFA
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 174,281 FCFA to pay you 1,805,614 FCFA. In other words, every time you spend 10 FCFA of your hard-earned money, 4.53 FCFA goes to the government.
Real tax rate
41.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 35.6% tax rate now rises to 41.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
