Total tax paid
RM 10
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer RM 5 to pay you RM 33. In other words, every time you spend RM 10 of your hard-earned money, RM 3.03 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
27%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 15.2% tax rate now rises to 27%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary

If you make RM 76,050 a year living in Malaysia, you will be taxed RM 12,224. That means that your net pay will be RM 63,826 per year, or RM 5,319 per month. Your average tax rate is 16.1% and your marginal tax rate is 34.4%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of RM 100 in your salary will be taxed RM 34.4, hence, your net pay will only increase by RM 65.6.

Bonus Example

A RM 1,000 bonus will generate an extra RM 656 of net incomes. A RM 5,000 bonus will generate an extra RM 3,280 of net incomes.
