Total tax paid
KSh 2,400
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer KSh 2,400 to pay you KSh 398. In other words, every time you spend KSh 10 of your hard-earned money, KSh 60.30 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
85.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 0% tax rate now rises to 85.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 85.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
