在北美在顶级咨询公司工作一年能攒下多少钱呢?在国内上海呢? -- by 会员 macli (2012/3/10 0:13:30)
Assume you earn 120k-150 k as an associate in a top consulting firm in US, you effective tax rate is around 35% if you are single. And your living cost all depends on the location and your life style -- by 会员 CodeMonkey (2012/3/10 8:25:19)
I think you should elaborate more with regard to the tax rate otherwise this is going to mislead a lot of readers here. Whether you are in the US or Canada, the tax rate is not a simple rate that applies to your total income; it calculates based on a bracket. If you earn $150,000 a year, you don't pay 35% tax on the entire 150,000, you only pay a portion of it. As a matter of fact, based on the 2011 IRS bracket, you pay 10% for $0-$8,500 15% for $8501-$34,500 20% for $34,501-$83,600 28% for $83,601-$174,400 So you are no where CLOSE to be paying 35% tax. -- by 会员 WhiteSuby (2012/3/12 3:07:24)
同学 你有没有在美国自己报过税啊 ? 你上面所列的是联邦税而已 还有州税,social security,medical, 很多地方还有城市税 同时你还有exemption, exceptions, credit, 还有买了房子车子贷款可以抵税 及其复杂 对于single filing 收入12-15w的 effective rate 35%是对于大多数州是比较精确的估计 -- by 会员 CodeMonkey (2012/3/12 3:32:03)
谢谢您的指点。我不是税务专家,也没在美国报税。我虽在加拿大报税,但两国上税的方式大同小异。而且原理是不变的。 在回答刚才帖子的时候确实忽律了FICA的TAX. |
