Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 66.60 元 to pay you 1,200,000 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 4.50 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
45.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 45% tax rate now rises to 45.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 2,496,000,000 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 1,122,994,729 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,373,005,271 元 per year, or 114,417,106 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 45.0% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%.
