Formula Used

The net income is calculated using this formula:

Net Income = Gross Income - Deductions - Taxes

Where Taxes are calculated based on Ontario's 2016 progressive tax rates.

Ontario's 2016 tax brackets were:

  • 15% on the first $42,961 of taxable income
  • 28% on the next $42,961
  • 33% on the amount over $85,922

These rates apply to all filing statuses in 2016.

Worked Example

Let's calculate the net income for someone with $60,000 gross income, no deductions, and single filing status:

  1. Taxable income = $60,000
  2. First $42,961 taxed at 15% = $6,444.15
  3. Next $17,039 taxed at 28% = $4,769.12
  4. Total taxes = $6,444.15 + $4,769.12 = $11,213.27
  5. Net income = $60,000 - $11,213.27 = $48,786.73

This example shows that someone earning $60,000 would take home approximately $48,787 after taxes in 2016.

Interpreting Your Results

  • It's your take-home pay after all tax deductions
