Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,049 元 to pay you 77,480 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 3.84 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
33.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 24.1% tax rate now rises to 33.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 929,760 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 224,424 元. That means that your net pay will be 705,336 元 per year, or 58,778 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 24.1% and your marginal tax rate is 35.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
