How the Ontario Salary Calculator Works
The Ontario salary calculator estimates your net pay by accounting for federal and provincial taxes, Canada Pension Plan (CPP), Employment Insurance (EI), and other deductions. The calculation follows these steps:
- Calculate federal and provincial income tax based on your gross salary
- Deduct CPP contributions (5.95% for employees)
- Deduct EI premiums (1.66% for employees)
- Apply any additional deductions (e.g., union dues, health benefits)
- Calculate net pay by subtracting all deductions from gross salary
Formula
Net Salary = Gross Salary - (Federal Tax + Provincial Tax + CPP + EI + Other Deductions)
