Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,049 元 to pay you 154,158 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 4.07 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
37.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 33.5% tax rate now rises to 37.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,849,896 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 619,679 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,230,217 元 per year, or 102,518 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 33.5% 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.
