Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 1,169 元 to pay you 3,354 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 5.48 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
40.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 20% tax rate now rises to 40.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 20.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 40,248 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 8,040 元. That means that your net pay will be 32,208 元 per year, or 2,684 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 20.0% and your marginal tax rate is 20.0%. 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 19.97 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 80.03 元.
