Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 15 867 kr to pay you 50 500 kr. In other words, every time you spend 10 kr of your hard-earned money, 6.43 kr goes to the government.
Real tax rate
48.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 32.9% tax rate now rises to 48.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 16% higher than what it seemed at first.
