Total tax paid

Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $500 to pay you $8,846. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $3.22 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
30.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 26.6% tax rate now rises to 30.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $8,846 a year living in the region of Alberta, Canada, you will be taxed $2,352. That means that your net pay will be $6,494 per year, or $541 per month. Your average tax rate is 26.6% and your marginal tax rate is 30.5%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of $100 in your salary will be taxed $30.46, hence, your net pay will only increase by $69.54.
