When you add the taxable amounts for 0%, 5%, 10%, and 17.5%, you will get GH¢3,896.67 (GH¢490+ GH¢110+ GH¢130ghc + GH¢3,166.67)
This means:
1. When your last year’s salary was GH¢3,896.67 or more, any new salary increment will fall within the 25% tax bracket
2. Even when your last salary is below the GH¢3,896.67, if the salary increment made your new salary more than the GH¢3,896.67, that extra amount will be taxed 25%.
