Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer S$404 to pay you S$2,375. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $3.76 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
32.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 20.6% tax rate now rises to 32.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary

If you make S$28,500 a year living in Singapore, you will be taxed S$5,868. That means that your net pay will be S$22,632 per year, or S$1,886 per month. Your average tax rate is 20.6% and your marginal tax rate is 22.2%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of $100 in your salary will be taxed $22.2, hence, your net pay will only increase by $77.8.

Bonus Example
