Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $2.48 to pay you $493. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $5.06 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
50.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 50.1% tax rate now rises to 50.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $961,350 a year living in the region of Ontario, Canada, you will be taxed $482,003. That means that your net pay will be $479,347 per year, or $39,946 per month. Your average tax rate is 50.1% and your marginal tax rate is 53.5%. 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 $53.53, hence, your net pay will only increase by $46.47.
Bonus Example
A $1,000 bonus will generate an extra $465 of net incomes. A $5,000 bonus will generate an extra $2,324 of net incomes.
