Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $74.22 to pay you $1,035. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $3.28 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
30.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 25.7% tax rate now rises to 30.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $26,910 a year living in the region of Ontario, Canada, you will be taxed $6,909. That means that your net pay will be $20,001 per year, or $1,667 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 $25.88, hence, your net pay will only increase by $74.12.
Bonus Example
A $1,000 bonus will generate an extra $741 of net incomes. A $5,000 bonus will generate an extra $3,706 of net incomes.
