Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 10,001 元 to pay you 25,416 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 7.35 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
52.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 34.1% tax rate now rises to 52.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 18.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 304,992 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 104,017 元. That means that your net pay will be 200,975 元 per year, or 16,748 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 34.1% and your marginal tax rate is 38.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
