Average and marginal tax rate on $90,000
Income tax takes 18.6% of a $90,000 salary in Alberta (average rate); counting CPP and EI, total deductions are 25.0%. The marginal rate — tax on the next dollar you earn — is 30.5% combined federal and provincial.
Your last dollar falls in Alberta's 2nd provincial bracket (10% on income $61,200–$154,259) and the 2nd federal bracket (20.5% on $58,523–$117,045). You have $64,259 of room before Alberta's next bracket starts at $154,259.
At $90,000 CPP, CPP2 and EI are all maxed ($4,230.45 + $416.00 + $1,123.07), so raises above this point are reduced only by income tax.
A $5,000 raise to $95,000 would add about $3,475 a year to your take-home pay (70% of the raise), or $134 per biweekly paycheque.
