    Understanding taxable income and tax calculation

    Canadian corporation based on its income statement. For simplicity, we’ll use fictional numbers and assume the corporation is subject to the federal corporate income tax rate and relevant provincial tax rates.

    Here’s a sample income statement for our fictional corporation:

    Revenue: $1,000,000

    Cost of Goods Sold (COGS): $400,000

    Gross Profit: $600,000

    Operating Expenses: $300,000

    Operating Income including $200,000 of payroll: $300,000

    Other Income: $20,000

    Interest Expense: $10,000

    Net Income Before Taxes: $310,000

    Income Tax Expense (Federal and Provincial): 15%

    Now, let’s calculate the taxes and contributions:

    Federal Corporate Income Tax:

    Federal corporate income tax is calculated based on the corporation’s taxable income before deducting any provincial taxes.

    Taxable Income Before Taxes: $310,000

    Federal Corporate Income Tax Rate: Let’s assume 10%

    Federal Tax Payable: $310,000 * 10% = $31,000

    Provincial Corporate Income Tax:

    Provincial corporate income tax rates vary by province. For this example, let’s assume a provincial tax rate of 5%.

    Provincial Taxable Income: $310,000

    Provincial Corporate Income Tax Rate: 5%

    Provincial Tax Payable: $310,000 * 5% = $15,500

    Total Corporate Income Tax:

    Total Corporate Income Tax = Federal Tax Payable + Provincial Tax Payable

    Total Corporate Income Tax = $31,000 + $15,500 = $46,500
