Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,545 元 to pay you 142,500 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 4.11 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
38.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 33% tax rate now rises to 38.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,710,000 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 564,229 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,145,771 元 per year, or 95,481 元 per month.
