Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $2,280 to pay you $31,340. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $3.30 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
30.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 25.7% tax rate now rises to 30.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $31,340 a year living in the region of Ontario, Canada, you will be taxed $8,055. That means that your net pay will be $23,285 per year, or $1,940 per month. Your average tax rate is 25.7% and your marginal tax rate is 25.9%. 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 $25.87, hence, your net pay will only increase by $74.13.
