Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 1,044 円 to pay you 50,790 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.43 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
43.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 42.3% tax rate now rises to 43.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 105,643,200 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 44,641,765 円. That means that your net pay will be 61,001,435 円 per year, or 5,083,453 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 42.3% 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.
