How to read this table

Nominal net isolates tax and mandatory employee charges at an exchange-rate-equivalent salary. PPP-adjusted net applies a broad national cost index. Standard models are suitable for screening, while detailed models carry jurisdiction-specific statutory bands. Neither is a personal tax return.
