The marginal rate of return is a term that is used to identify the rate of return that is generated if a single unit is added to the current process, in comparison with choosing to maintain the status quo or taking some other type of action that exerts some effect on the returns realized.
A marginal tax rate refers to the tax rate an individual would pay on one additional dollar of income. Thus, the marginal tax rate is the tax percentage on the last dollar earned. In the United States in 2013, for example, the highest marginal tax rate was 39.6%, applying to earnings over $400,000.
