Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,545 元 to pay you 34,992 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 6.23 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
46.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 29.3% tax rate now rises to 46.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 17.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 419,904 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 123,000 元. That means that your net pay will be 296,904 元 per year, or 24,742 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 29.3% 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.
