Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,545 元 to pay you 33,800 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 6.36 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
47.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 29.4% tax rate now rises to 47.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 18% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 405,600 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 119,424 元. That means that your net pay will be 286,176 元 per year, or 23,848 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 29.4% and your marginal tax rate is 25.0%. 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 25 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 75 元.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 元 bonus will generate an extra 750 元 of net incomes. A 5,000 元 bonus will generate an extra 3,750 元 of net incomes.
