Marginal Tax Rates refers to the tax imposed on the next dollar earned and is the highest tax rate imposed on your income. Marginal Tax Rates is also known as Ordinary Income Tax rates and can be found in the Tax Year's 1040 Form Instructions or online through various websites. The effective tax rate is the actual percentage of taxes you pay on all your taxable income.
