Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer R 3 477 to pay you R 330 000. In other words, every time you spend R 10 of your hard-earned money, R 4.15 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
41.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 40.5% tax rate now rises to 41.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary

Si vous gagnez un salaire brut de R 3 960 000 par an en South Africa, vous serez imposé de R 1 602 672. Cela signifie que votre salaire net sera de R 2 357 328 par an, ou R 196 444 par mois. Votre taux d'imposition moyen est 40.5% et votre taux d'imposition marginal est 45.0%. Ce taux d'imposition marginal signifie que votre revenu supplémentaire immédiat sera imposé à ce taux. Par exemple, une augmentation de R 100 à votre salaire sera imposé de R 45, par conséquent, votre salaire net augmentera seulement de R 55.

Bonus Example

A R 1,000 bonus will generate an extra R 550 of net incomes. A R 5,000 bonus will generate an extra R 2,750 of net incomes.
