Total tax paid
£41,108
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer £9,945 to pay you £66,083. In other words, every time you spend £10 of your hard-earned money, £6.22 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
54.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 47.2% tax rate now rises to 54.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 6.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
