Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 186,143 円 to pay you 9,678,500 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.45 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
43.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 42.6% tax rate now rises to 43.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 116,142,000 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 49,482,464 円. That means that your net pay will be 66,659,536 円 per year, or 5,554,961 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 42.6% and your marginal tax rate is 46.1%. 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 46.11 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 53.89 円.
