Worked Example

Let's calculate the provincial tax for a single filer with $60,000 in taxable income:

Calculation Steps

  1. $44,703 × 5.05% = $2,254.22
  2. ($60,000 - $44,703) × 9.15% = $1,257.19
  3. Total tax = $2,254.22 + $1,257.19 = $3,511.41

So a single filer with $60,000 in taxable income would owe approximately $3,511.41 in Ontario provincial tax.
