How Federal Income Tax Brackets Work. Say a married couple, filing jointly, in 2016, had a taxable income of $175,000. Each dollar over $151,900âor $23,100âwould fall into the 28% federal income tax bracket. However, the couples' total federal tax would have been $35,986âjust about 20%, of their adjusted gross income.
Your tax bracket is the rate you pay on the last dollar you earn; but as a percentage of your income, your tax rate is generally less than that.rom 2000 to 2002 most brackets dropped by one percent, and there was a new low bracket added at the very bottom. In 2003 most brackets got an additional cut of two percent with a 3.6 percent cut at the top.
