Total tax paid
S$45.02
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer S$45.02 to pay you S$262. In other words, every time you spend S$10 of your hard-earned money, S$1.72 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
14.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 0% tax rate now rises to 14.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 14.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
