Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $17.57 to pay you $319. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $2.57 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
24.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 20.2% tax rate now rises to 24.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $8,294 a year living in the region of Ontario, Canada, you will be taxed $1,678. That means that your net pay will be $6,616 per year, or $551 per month. Your average tax rate is 20.2% and your marginal tax rate is 30.6%. 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 $30.55, hence, your net pay will only increase by $69.45.
Bonus Example
