This free pension calculator helps to calculate the amount that both employee & employer are to contribute into retirement pension scheme in favour of the employee.
According to Nigeria Pension Commission, employee is expected to contribute 8% of the sum of his basic salary, housing allowance, and transport allowance. The employer however is required to contribute minimum of 10% of the same sum. These are mathematically expressed below.
Employee Pension Contribution = (Basic Salary + Housing Allowance + Transport Allowance) * 8 / 100 Employer Pension Contribution = (Basic Salary + Housing Allowance + Transport Allowance) * 10 / 100 Total Pension Contribution = Employee Pension Contribution + Employer Pension Contribution
Note well that the amount contributed by employee is tax free.
