Total tax paid
S$156
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer S$101 to pay you S$592. In other words, every time you spend S$10 of your hard-earned money, S$2.63 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
22.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 9.2% tax rate now rises to 22.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 13.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
