Worked Example

Let's calculate the taxes for a single person with a total income of $50,000 in 2017.

  1. Federal Tax Rate: 15%
  2. Provincial Tax Rate: 5.05%
  3. Federal Tax = $50,000 × 15% = $7,500
  4. Provincial Tax = $50,000 × 5.05% = $2,525
  5. Total Tax = $7,500 + $2,525 = $10,025
  6. Net Income = $50,000 - $10,025 = $39,975

Using the calculator with these inputs would show the same results.
