Total tax paid
S$2,303
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer S$47.08 to pay you S$10,454. In other words, every time you spend S$10 of your hard-earned money, S$2.20 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
21.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 21.6% tax rate now rises to 21.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
