Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $3,997 to pay you $53,040. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $3.24 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
30.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 24.8% tax rate now rises to 30.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $53,040 a year living in the region of Nunavut, Canada, you will be taxed $13,166. That means that your net pay will be $39,874 per year, or $3,323 per month. Your average tax rate is 24.8% and your marginal tax rate is 33.2%. 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 $33.18, hence, your net pay will only increase by $66.82.
