Total tax paid
KSh 117
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer KSh 9.23 to pay you KSh 849. In other words, every time you spend KSh 10 of your hard-earned money, KSh 1.38 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
13.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 12.7% tax rate now rises to 13.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
