Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 5,969 元 to pay you 15,170 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 6.92 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
49.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 29.9% tax rate now rises to 49.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 19.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 182,040 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 54,392 元. That means that your net pay will be 127,648 元 per year, or 10,637 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 29.9% and your marginal tax rate is 50.1%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 元 in your salary will be taxed 50.12 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 49.88 元.
