Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 2,664 元 to pay you 20,560 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 3.96 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
35.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 26.7% tax rate now rises to 35.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,069,120 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 285,202 元. That means that your net pay will be 783,918 元 per year, or 65,326 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 26.7% and your marginal tax rate is 43.0%. 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 43.01 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 56.99 元.
