Real tax rate

Summary
If you make 36,599,940 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 16,257,198 元. That means that your net pay will be 20,342,742 元 per year, or 1,695,228 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 44.4% 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.
