Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,049 元 to pay you 68,402 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 3.88 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
33.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 22.7% tax rate now rises to 33.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 10.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 820,824 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 186,297 元. That means that your net pay will be 634,527 元 per year, or 52,877 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 22.7% and your marginal tax rate is 35.0%. 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 35 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 65 元.
