Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 10,062 円 to pay you 691,829 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.53 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
44.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 43.8% tax rate now rises to 44.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.90000000000001% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 179,875,540 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 78,868,192 円. That means that your net pay will be 101,007,348 円 per year, or 8,417,279 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 43.9% 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 46.10 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 53.90 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.
