Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 0.82 元 to pay you 3 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 4.05 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
31.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 13.2% tax rate now rises to 31.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 18.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 6,240 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 823 元. That means that your net pay will be 5,417 元 per year, or 451 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 13.2% and your marginal tax rate is 13.2%. 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 13.19 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 86.81 元.
