Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer CHF 17 to pay you CHF 105. In other words, every time you spend CHF 10 of your hard-earned money, CHF 4.95 goes to the government.
Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 33.3% tax rate now rises to 42.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary

If you make CHF 234'780 a year living in the region of Zurich, Switzerland, you will be taxed CHF 78'726. That means that your net pay will be CHF 156'054 per year, or CHF 13'005 per month. Your average tax rate is 33.5% and your marginal tax rate is 48.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
