How $140,000 is taxed

Your first paycheque of the year is $3,620.36. Because $140,000 is above the EI maximum insurable earnings ($68,900) and the CPP earnings limit ($74,600), those deductions stop part-way through the year and your later paycheques are bigger. You also pay CPP2 of $416.00 on earnings between $74,600 and $85,000.

Of the next $1,000 you earn, you keep $566 (marginal rate 43.4% including CPP and EI, on your tax return).

At tax time you can expect a refund of about $0.07.
