Taxable income \$107,000 |
First, we calculate the federal tax. We allot the taxable income to the various tax bands shown in Table 12-1. The first \$45,282 is taxed at the lowest rate, 15\%. This leaves us with \$61,718 to allocate to the higher bands. The next \$45,282 of income falls into the band between \$45,282 and \$90,563, taxed at 20.5\%. The final \$16,437 of income falls into the 26\% band, so our marginal tax rate at the federal level is 26\%. We calculate the amount of tax owed on each fraction of income and sum the results to get \$20,348.52.
Next, we subtract the federal personal exemption shown in Table 12 2. The table tells us that we needn’t pay tax on the first \$11,474. This \$11,474 would have been taxed at the lowest rate, 15\%, so we multiply it by 15\% and subtract it from total taxes owed. We then go through a similar calculation at the provincial level.
