Worked Example
Let's walk through an example to see how the Ontario 2022 Income Tax Calculator works.
Suppose you have a taxable income of $80,000 and you are filing as a single individual. Here's how the calculation would work:
- The first $45,142 is taxed at 5.05%: $45,142 × 0.0505 = $2,284.27
- The next $34,858 ($80,000 - $45,142) is taxed at 9.15%: $34,858 × 0.0915 = $3,195.74
- Total provincial tax: $2,284.27 + $3,195.74 = $5,480.01
Using the calculator, you would enter $80,000 as your taxable income and select "Single" as your filing status. The calculator would then display your estimated provincial tax of $5,480.01.
