Worked Example
Let's calculate the Ontario income tax for a single filer with $60,000 taxable income and no deductions or credits.
- First $45,142 at 5.05% = $2,264.33
- Next $14,858 ($60,000 - $45,142) at 9.15% = $1,359.24
- Total tax = $2,264.33 + $1,359.24 = $3,623.57
Your net income would be $60,000 - $3,623.57 = $56,376.43.
