Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $212 to pay you $5,200. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $2.22 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
21.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 18.1% tax rate now rises to 21.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $5,200 a year living in the region of Nunavut, Canada, you will be taxed $940. That means that your net pay will be $4,260 per year, or $355 per month. Your average tax rate is 18.1% 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.
Bonus Example
A $1,000 bonus will generate an extra $751 of net incomes. A $5,000 bonus will generate an extra $3,755 of net incomes.
