Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,049 元 to pay you 70,526 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 3.87 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
33.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 23.1% tax rate now rises to 33.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 10.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 846,312 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 195,217 元. That means that your net pay will be 651,095 元 per year, or 54,258 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 23.1% 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.
