  1. tax bracket

    A tax bracket is a specified range of income that is subject to a particular level or rate of taxation. The tax system in many countries, including the United States, is progressive, meaning that as an individual's or business's income increases, a higher tax rate may be applied for the higher portion of the income. Each tax bracket identifies the level of taxable income and the corresponding tax rate applied to that level.
