BUG: Deduction of tax-free employer contributions for Vorsorgeaufwendungen #705

Open MImmesberger opened 8 months ago

MImmesberger commented 8 months ago

Bug description

In the module Vorsorgeaufwendungen, we deduct the employee contributions, where we should deduct employer contributions (e.g. in vorsorgeaufw_alter_y_sn_einfuehrung and in vorsorgeaufw_alter_y_sn).

Problem description

This is probably an approximation as employer and employee contributions are the same for regular jobs. But it is probably wrong for Midijobs.

This website explains the calculation.
