Worked Example
Let's calculate the taxes for a single person with a gross salary of $50,000 in 2017.
- Federal tax: $11,475 × 15% + ($45,655 - $11,475) × 20.5% = $1,742.08 + $6,930.95 = $8,673.03
- Provincial tax: $11,475 × 5.05% + ($45,655 - $11,475) × 9.15% = $575.94 + $3,146.01 = $3,721.95
- Ontario Health Tax: $50,000 × 1.65% = $825
- Total deductions: $8,673.03 + $3,721.95 + $825 = $13,219.98
- Net salary: $50,000 - $13,219.98 = $36,780.02
Using the calculator, you would enter $50,000 as the gross salary and select "Single" as the filing status to get this result.
