Ontario Corporate Tax Brackets 2023

Ontario corporate tax is progressive, meaning higher tax rates apply to higher income levels. The 2023 tax brackets are as follows:

Taxable Income Range	Tax Rate
$0 - $50,000	12.16%
$50,001 - $100,000	13.16%
$100,001 - $200,000	14.16%
$200,001 - $500,000	16.50%
Over $500,000	17.50%

These rates are subject to change and should be verified with official government sources or a tax professional for your specific situation.

Calculation Method

The Ontario corporate tax is calculated using the progressive tax brackets shown above. The formula used is:

Corporate Tax = Sum of (Taxable Income × Tax Rate for each bracket)

For example, if a company has $150,000 in taxable income, the calculation would be:

$50,000 × 12.16% = $6,080

$50,000 × 13.16% = $6,580

$50,000 × 14.16% = $7,080

Total Corporate Tax = $6,080 + $6,580 + $7,080 = $19,740

This calculator automatically applies these brackets to your input to provide an accurate estimate.

Worked Example

Let's calculate the corporate tax for a company with $225,000 in taxable income:

First $50,000: $50,000 × 12.16% = $6,080
Next $50,000 ($50,001-$100,000): $50,000 × 13.16% = $6,580
Next $125,000 ($100,001-$225,000): $125,000 × 14.16% = $17,700
Total Corporate Tax: $6,080 + $6,580 + $17,700 = $30,360

The company would owe $30,360 in corporate tax for the year.
