Formula Used
The calculator uses the following formula to estimate your net income:
Net Income = Gross Income - Provincial Taxes - CPP Contributions - EI Premiums
Where:
- Provincial Taxes = Gross Income × Ontario tax rate
- CPP Contributions = Gross Income × 5.95%
- EI Premiums = Gross Income × 1.66%
The Ontario tax rate is determined based on your taxable income using the brackets shown above.
Worked Example
Let's calculate the net income for someone earning $60,000 per year.
- Determine the tax bracket: $60,000 falls in the $49,060 - $98,119 bracket with a 9.15% rate.
- Calculate provincial taxes: $60,000 × 9.15% = $5,490
- Calculate CPP contributions: $60,000 × 5.95% = $3,570
- Calculate EI premiums: $60,000 × 1.66% = $996
- Total deductions: $5,490 + $3,570 + $996 = $9,956
- Net income: $60,000 - $9,956 = $50,044
So, someone earning $60,000 would have an estimated net income of $50,044 after taxes and deductions.
