Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,049 元 to pay you 81,250 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 3.82 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
33.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 24.6% tax rate now rises to 33.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 975,000 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 240,258 元. That means that your net pay will be 734,742 元 per year, or 61,228 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 24.6% 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.
