Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 6,067 元 to pay you 15,418 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 6.96 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
49.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 30.2% tax rate now rises to 49.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 19.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 185,016 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 55,884 元. That means that your net pay will be 129,132 元 per year, or 10,761 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 30.2% 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 50.11 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 49.89 元.
