Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $375 to pay you $4,953. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $3.56 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
33.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 28.1% tax rate now rises to 33.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $59,436 a year living in the region of Ontario, Canada, you will be taxed $16,674. That means that your net pay will be $42,762 per year, or $3,564 per month. Your average tax rate is 28.1% and your marginal tax rate is 35.5%. 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 $35.47, hence, your net pay will only increase by $64.53.
