How US federal tax brackets work

The US has a progressive tax system — you pay a lower rate on income up to each threshold, not a flat rate on all income. For example, if you earn $50,000 as a single filer in 2025, you pay 10% on the first $11,925, 12% on $11,925–$48,475, and 22% on the remainder. The effective rate is your total tax divided by your income; the marginal rate is the rate on your last dollar earned. Brackets are for federal income tax only — state taxes vary separately.
