Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,048 元 to pay you 35,013 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 5.84 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
44.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 26.9% tax rate now rises to 44.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 17.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 420,156 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 112,822 元. That means that your net pay will be 307,334 元 per year, or 25,611 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 26.9% and your marginal tax rate is 25.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
