Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $196 to pay you $5,004. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $2.17 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
20.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 17.8% tax rate now rises to 20.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $5,004 a year living in the region of Nunavut, Canada, you will be taxed $891. That means that your net pay will be $4,113 per year, or $343 per month. Your average tax rate is 17.8% 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.
