Summary
If you make $42,198 a year living in the region of Nunavut, Canada, you will be taxed $10,151. That means that your net pay will be $32,047 per year, or $2,671 per month. Your average tax rate is 24.1% 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.
