How the 2016 Ontario Tax Calculation Works
The 2016 Ontario income tax calculation follows these steps:
- Calculate Taxable Income: Subtract deductions from total income to get taxable income.
- Calculate Federal Tax: Apply the federal tax brackets to the taxable income.
- Calculate Provincial Tax: Apply the Ontario provincial tax brackets to the taxable income.
- Calculate Net Income: Subtract total taxes from total income to get net income.
Formula Used
Taxable Income = Total Income - Deductions
Federal Tax = Federal Tax Brackets (2016)
Provincial Tax = Ontario Tax Brackets (2016)
Total Tax = Federal Tax + Provincial Tax
Net Income = Total Income - Total Tax
The 2016 federal and Ontario tax brackets are used for this calculation. These brackets are based on the tax rates and thresholds that were in effect for the 2016 tax year.
Worked Example
Let's calculate the 2016 Ontario income tax for someone with $60,000 in total income and $5,000 in deductions.
- Taxable Income: $60,000 - $5,000 = $55,000
- Federal Tax: $55,000 × 20.5% (2016 federal tax rate) = $11,275
- Provincial Tax: $55,000 × 13.16% (2016 Ontario tax rate) = $7,233
- Total Tax: $11,275 + $7,233 = $18,508
- Net Income: $60,000 - $18,508 = $41,492
This example shows that someone earning $60,000 with $5,000 in deductions would have a net income of $41,492 after taxes in 2016.
