Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 1,519 元 to pay you 4,359 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 5.85 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
43.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 23.7% tax rate now rises to 43.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 19.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 52,308 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 12,389 元. That means that your net pay will be 39,919 元 per year, or 3,327 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 23.7% and your marginal tax rate is 25.8%. 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 25.75 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 74.25 元.
