How it's calculated

Taxable = income − deductions
Tax = Σ (income inside each bracket × that bracket's rate)
Effective rate = tax ÷ income

In a progressive system each rate applies only to the slice of income inside its bracket, so moving into a higher bracket never lowers take-home pay. The marginal rate is what your next unit of income is taxed at; the effective rate is the average across all of it. Tax law differs by country and year: enter the brackets and allowances that apply to you.
