Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,049 元 to pay you 62,500 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 4.13 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
35.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 23.6% tax rate now rises to 35.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 750,000 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 177,265 元. That means that your net pay will be 572,735 元 per year, or 47,728 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 23.6% and your marginal tax rate is -43.8%. 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 -43.78 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 144 元.
