Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 4,457 元 to pay you 12,792 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 5.99 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
44.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 25% tax rate now rises to 44.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 19.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 153,504 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 38,447 元. That means that your net pay will be 115,057 元 per year, or 9,588 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 25.1% and your marginal tax rate is 25.8%. 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 25.75 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 74.25 元.
