Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer KSh 2,400 to pay you KSh 2,808. In other words, every time you spend KSh 10 of your hard-earned money, KSh 8.55 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
46.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 0% tax rate now rises to 46.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 46.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
