Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $1,779 to pay you $25,000. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $3.06 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
28.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 23.5% tax rate now rises to 28.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $25,000 a year living in the region of Nunavut, Canada, you will be taxed $5,870. That means that your net pay will be $19,130 per year, or $1,594 per month. Your average tax rate is 23.5% 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 $24.90, hence, your net pay will only increase by $75.10.
