Total tax paid
S$24,154
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer S$10,201 to pay you S$60,008. In other words, every time you spend S$10 of your hard-earned money, S$4.03 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
34.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 23.3% tax rate now rises to 34.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
