Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 187,252 円 to pay you 9,863,364 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.46 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
43.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 42.7% tax rate now rises to 43.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 118,360,368 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 50,505,290 円. That means that your net pay will be 67,855,078 円 per year, or 5,654,590 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 42.7% 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.
