Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,049 元 to pay you 121,845 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 3.95 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
36.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 30.4% tax rate now rises to 36.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,462,140 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 445,188 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,016,952 元 per year, or 84,746 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 30.5% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. 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 45 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 55 元.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 元 bonus will generate an extra 550 元 of net incomes. A 5,000 元 bonus will generate an extra 2,750 元 of net incomes.
