Formula Used

The calculator uses the following formula to calculate your net income:

Net Income = Gross Income - (CPP + EI + Income Tax)

Where:

CPP = 5.95% of gross income (up to $62,100)
EI = 1.66% of gross income (up to $57,400)
Income Tax = Federal + Provincial tax rates based on your tax bracket

For Ontario, the provincial tax rates are:

Income Range	Provincial Tax Rate
$0 - $45,142	5.05%
$45,142.01 - $90,287	9.15%
$90,287.01 - $150,000	11.16%
$150,000.01 - $220,000	12.16%
Over $220,000	13.16%

The federal tax rates are applied in addition to the provincial rates.

Worked Example

Let's calculate the taxes for a self-employed person in Ontario with $80,000 in gross income.

CPP: 5.95% of $80,000 = $4,760
EI: 1.66% of $80,000 = $1,328
Income Tax:
- Federal tax: $16,962 (based on 2023 rates)
- Provincial tax: $6,345 (9.15% of $80,000)
- Total income tax: $23,307
Total deductions: $4,760 + $1,328 + $23,307 = $31,395
Net income: $80,000 - $31,395 = $48,605

This example shows that after all deductions, the self-employed person would have approximately $48,605 in net income.
