Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 136,078 円 to pay you 1,440,002 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.03 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
36.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 30.9% tax rate now rises to 36.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 17,280,024 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 5,334,997 円. That means that your net pay will be 11,945,027 円 per year, or 995,419 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 30.9% and your marginal tax rate is 38.4%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 円 in your salary will be taxed 38.42 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 61.58 円.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 616 円 of net incomes. A 5,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 3,079 円 of net incomes.
