Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer RM 2,635 to pay you RM 17,500. In other words, every time you spend RM 10 of your hard-earned money, RM 2.69 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
23.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 11.8% tax rate now rises to 23.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
