Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $987 to pay you $15,002. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $2.91 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
27.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 22.5% tax rate now rises to 27.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $15,002 a year living in the region of Nunavut, Canada, you will be taxed $3,380. That means that your net pay will be $11,622 per year, or $968 per month. Your average tax rate is 22.5% and your marginal tax rate is 24.9%. 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 $24.89, hence, your net pay will only increase by $75.11.
Bonus Example
A $1,000 bonus will generate an extra $751 of net incomes. A $5,000 bonus will generate an extra $3,756 of net incomes.
