Answer Details
The average tax rate is the ratio of the total amount of taxes paid by an individual or a company to their total income. For example, if an individual earns $50,000 and pays $10,000 in taxes, their average tax rate would be 20% ($10,000/$50,000). It represents the overall tax burden on the taxpayer, and is often used to compare tax rates across different income levels and tax jurisdictions.
