Tax brackets for individuals are provided below:

For earnings between $0 and $20,000, the tax rate on every dollar of income earned is 1.4%.

For earnings between $20,001 and $35,000, the tax rate on every dollar of income earned is 1.75%.

For earnings between $35,001 and $40,000, the tax rate on every dollar of income earned is 3.5%.

For earnings of $500,001 and over, the tax rate on every dollar of income earned is 8.97%.

To give an example, if you file individually and your earned income is $50,000 your tax will be calculated the following way: ($20,000 (first bracket) x 1.4%) + ($15,000 (second bracket) x 1.75%) + ($5,000 (third bracket) x 3.5%) + ($10,000 (fourth bracket) x 5.525%) = $280 + $262.50 + $175 + $552.50 = $1,270, for an overall rate of 2.54%.
