Total tax paid
€ 46,985
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 16,678 to pay you € 73,992. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 6.35 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
51.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 41% tax rate now rises to 51.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 10.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
