Formula Used

The calculator uses the following formula to estimate your Ontario income tax:

Total Tax = Federal Tax + Provincial Tax

Where:

Federal Tax = Federal tax rate × Taxable Income
Provincial Tax = Ontario tax rate × Taxable Income
Taxable Income = Gross Income - Deductions

The tax rates and brackets used are based on the 2023 tax tables provided by the Canada Revenue Agency and the Ontario Ministry of Finance.

Assumptions

Standard deductions are applied
No additional tax credits or deductions beyond standard amounts
Tax rates are based on 2023 figures
No provincial tax credits beyond standard amounts

Worked Example

Let's calculate the estimated tax for a single individual with a gross income of $60,000.

Step 1: Calculate Taxable Income

Taxable Income = Gross Income - Deductions

$60,000 - $12,069 (standard deduction) = $47,931

Step 2: Calculate Federal Tax

Federal Tax = Federal tax rate × Taxable Income

$47,931 × 20.5% = $9,775.65

Step 3: Calculate Provincial Tax

Provincial Tax = Ontario tax rate × Taxable Income

$47,931 × 5.05% = $2,422.66

Step 4: Calculate Total Tax

Total Tax = Federal Tax + Provincial Tax

$9,775.65 + $2,422.66 = $12,198.31

Step 5: Calculate Net Income

Net Income = Gross Income - Total Tax

$60,000 - $12,198.31 = $47,801.69

For this example, the estimated tax liability is $12,198.31, resulting in a net income of $47,801.69.
