Once earnings move well above the higher and additional rate thresholds, each extra part of income is taxed at a higher marginal rate. On a £360,000 salary, the personal allowance is also fully lost, which pushes more of the income into taxable bands.
That means the gap between gross monthly pay and net monthly pay becomes much wider than it is at lower salaries.
