Total tax paid
RM 15
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer RM 6 to pay you RM 45. In other words, every time you spend RM 10 of your hard-earned money, RM 3.33 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
29.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 20% tax rate now rises to 29.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary

If you make RM 105,300 a year living in Malaysia, you will be taxed RM 21,080. That means that your net pay will be RM 84,220 per year, or RM 7,018 per month. Your average tax rate is 20.0% and your marginal tax rate is 35.0%. 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 35, hence, your net pay will only increase by RM 65.

Bonus Example

A RM 1,000 bonus will generate an extra RM 650 of net incomes. A RM 5,000 bonus will generate an extra RM 3,250 of net incomes.
