Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 10,010 元 to pay you 720,001 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 4.40 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
43.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 42.6% tax rate now rises to 43.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 8,640,012 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 3,683,513 元. That means that your net pay will be 4,956,499 元 per year, or 413,042 元 per month.
