Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 775 元 to pay you 1,969 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 6.51 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
46.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 25.7% tax rate now rises to 46.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 21% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 47,256 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 12,155 元. That means that your net pay will be 35,101 元 per year, or 2,925 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 25.7% and your marginal tax rate is 58.6%. 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 58.56 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 41.44 元.
Bonus Example
