Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $467 to pay you $8,424. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $2.24 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
21.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 16.9% tax rate now rises to 21.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $8,424 a year living in the region of British Columbia, Canada, you will be taxed $1,422. That means that your net pay will be $7,002 per year, or $583 per month.
