Total tax paid
1,713,467 FCFA
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 734,910 FCFA to pay you 4,536,480 FCFA. In other words, every time you spend 10 FCFA of your hard-earned money, 3.78 FCFA goes to the government.
Real tax rate
32.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 21.6% tax rate now rises to 32.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 10.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
