Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 32,575 円 to pay you 4,444,080 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.65 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
46.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 45.8% tax rate now rises to 46.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,155,460,800 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 528,682,898 円. That means that your net pay will be 626,777,902 円 per year, or 52,231,492 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 45.8% 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.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 539 円 of net incomes. A 5,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 2,695 円 of net incomes.
