Formulas Used
The Ontario Calculator uses standard formulas for common calculations. Here are the key formulas used in this calculator:
Income Tax Calculation
Ontario's income tax is calculated using progressive tax brackets. The formula is:
Tax = (Income × Tax Rate) - Tax Credit
Where Tax Rate is determined by your income bracket and Tax Credit is your applicable tax credit amount.
Property Tax Calculation
Property tax is calculated based on the assessed value of the property and the provincial tax rate:
Property Tax = (Assessed Value × Tax Rate) / 12
This gives you the monthly property tax amount.
These formulas provide accurate estimates based on current provincial regulations. For precise financial advice, always consult with a tax professional.
