Total tax paid
£39,179
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer £12,492 to pay you £83,000. In other words, every time you spend £10 of your hard-earned money, £4.72 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
41.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 32.2% tax rate now rises to 41.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
