Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 13,922 kr to pay you 116,000 kr. In other words, every time you spend 10 kr of your hard-earned money, 4.50 kr goes to the government.
Real tax rate
40.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 33% tax rate now rises to 40.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 116,000 kr a year living in the region of Egedal, Denmark, you will be taxed 38,299 kr. That means that your net pay will be 77,701 kr per year, or 6,475 kr per month. Your average tax rate is 33.0% and your marginal tax rate is 32.7%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 kr in your salary will be taxed 32.65 kr, hence, your net pay will only increase by 67.35 kr.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 kr bonus will generate an extra 674 kr of net incomes. A 5,000 kr bonus will generate an extra 3,368 kr of net incomes.
