7 How do you get from Net Income for Tax Purposes to Taxable Income to Tax Payable?
Gurveer Brar
After determining Net Income for Tax Purposes using the Section 3 ordering rules, Division C deductions are subtracted to get to the Taxable income (note, don’t confuse Division ‘C’ deductions with section 3(c) deductions). Then Marginal rates are applied to the Taxable Income to calculate the Tax Payable before credits. Lastly, credits are deducted to get to the Tax Payable. This is best illustrated with an example using 2024 marginal rates and tax credits.
