>>41165335I can't believe post in the numbers thread and still don't know how the superchat cuts work
Someone sends a 10,000 yen SC
>A superchat is a product, so it's affected by the local sales tax or VAT. That's the first thing they substract from the total amount of a superchat. 10,000 yen - 10% vat = 9,000 yen
>If it was sent through Apple's in-app, that's 30% cut for Apple9,000 yen - 30% apple = 6,300 yen
>Youtube's cut is 30% after apple's cut (if applicable), otherwise it's after the VAT cut6,300 yen - 30% youtube = 4,410 yen (apple'd)
9,000 yen - 30% apple = 6,300 yen (non-apple'd)
>Cover and the talents split the remaining amount 50/50 after all the cuts. Sometimes people express it as 30/35/35.4,410 yen - 50% cover = 2,205 yen (apple'd)
6,300 yen - 50% cover = 3,150 yen (non-apple'd)
The talent gets between 22.05% and 31.50% of the original amount.
>If we average apple with non-apple amounts (The US and Japan all love using iPhones)(2,205 + 3,150) / 2 = 2,677.50 yen
The talent gets around 26.78% of the original amount averaged
>The income tax in japan for income over 40 million yen is 45% state + 10% localAny amount of money they earned after 40 million yen is taxed 55%, so only 9.90%-14.18% (12.05% average) net income from the original amount.
