How Ontario Taxes Worked in 2014

Ontario's tax system in 2014 was designed to be progressive, meaning higher-income individuals paid a larger percentage of their income in taxes. The tax brackets were applied sequentially to your taxable income:

The first $42,961 of taxable income was taxed at 5.05%
The next $42,962 to $85,923 was taxed at 9.15%
The next $85,924 to $150,000 was taxed at 11.16%
The next $150,001 to $220,000 was taxed at 12.16%
Any income above $220,000 was taxed at 13.16%

Formula: Provincial Tax = (First Bracket × 5.05%) + (Second Bracket × 9.15%) + (Third Bracket × 11.16%) + (Fourth Bracket × 12.16%) + (Fifth Bracket × 13.16%)

For example, if your taxable income was $100,000, the calculation would be:

$42,961 × 5.05% = $2,166.36
($85,923 - $42,961) × 9.15% = $3,622.80
($100,000 - $85,923) × 11.16% = $1,499.92
Total tax = $2,166.36 + $3,622.80 + $1,499.92 = $7,289.08
