Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $638 to pay you $10,012. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $2.23 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
20.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 15.9% tax rate now rises to 20.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $10,012 a year living in the region of Quebec, Canada, you will be taxed $1,592. That means that your net pay will be $8,421 per year, or $702 per month.

For instance, an increase of $100 in your salary will be taxed $19.38, hence, your net pay will only increase by $80.62.
