Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 5,274 元 to pay you 15,833 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 6.38 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
47.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 30.5% tax rate now rises to 47.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 17.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 189,996 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 57,890 元. That means that your net pay will be 132,106 元 per year, or 11,009 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 30.5% 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 50.09 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 49.91 元.
