Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,316 元 to pay you 29,987 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 7.19 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
52.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 34.2% tax rate now rises to 52.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 18% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 359,844 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 123,078 元. That means that your net pay will be 236,766 元 per year, or 19,730 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 34.2% and your marginal tax rate is 31.1%. 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 31.10 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 68.90 元.
