Assumptions

  • · Model uses IRSA (salary income tax) applicable to resident employees with employment income.
  • · Minimum IRSA liability of MGA 3,000 is modeled as a fixed surcharge applied after bracket calculations.
  • · Employee social contributions (1% pension, 1% health, 1% training = 3% total) are deductible from gross income before IRSA calculation, per stated deductions.
  • · Employer social contributions (13% pension, 5% health, 1% training) are excluded as per schema rules (employer-only charges).
  • · Dependent tax credit of MGA 2,000 per month (MGA 24,000 annually) is not applied; model assumes no dependents per default person definition.
  • · No church tax, no optional expat regime, no business income complications assumed.
  • · Legal minimum salary and related caps on contributions are not explicitly modeled due to lack of current 2025 LMS figure; contribution calculations use stated percentages without monthly maximums.
