Total tax paid
€ 49,920
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 13,463 to pay you € 87,996. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 5.67 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
49.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 41.4% tax rate now rises to 49.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
