Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 8,855 元 to pay you 25,417 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 6.49 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
48.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 30.1% tax rate now rises to 48.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 18.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 305,004 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 91,821 元. That means that your net pay will be 213,183 元 per year, or 17,765 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 30.1% and your marginal tax rate is 34.0%. 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 34 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 66 元.
Bonus Example
