Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,545 元 to pay you 148,749 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 4.13 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
38.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 33.5% tax rate now rises to 38.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,784,988 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 597,974 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,187,014 元 per year, or 98,918 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 33.5% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
