Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $251 to pay you $5,700. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $2.01 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
19.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 15.7% tax rate now rises to 19.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $5,700 a year living in the region of Ontario, Canada, you will be taxed $893. That means that your net pay will be $4,807 per year, or $401 per month. Your average tax rate is 15.7% and your marginal tax rate is 28.0%. 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 $28, hence, your net pay will only increase by $72.
