Worked Example
Let's calculate the tax for a single person earning $60,000:
- First $49,020 at 15% federal + 5.05% Ontario = $7,353.30
- Next $10,980 ($60,000 - $49,020) at 20.5% federal + 9.15% Ontario = $2,428.70
- Total tax = $7,353.30 + $2,428.70 = $9,782.00
- Net income = $60,000 - $9,782 = $50,218
