Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 66.60 元 to pay you 20,769 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 4.48 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
44.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 44.5% tax rate now rises to 44.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 43,199,520 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 19,234,513 元. That means that your net pay will be 23,965,007 元 per year, or 1,997,084 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 44.5% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
