Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 5.90 元 to pay you 15 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 6.42 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
46.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 24.8% tax rate now rises to 46.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 21.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 31,200 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 7,745 元. That means that your net pay will be 23,455 元 per year, or 1,955 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 24.8% and your marginal tax rate is 24.8%. 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 24.83 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 75.17 元.
