Investopedia explains 'Tax Rate'
1. For example, consider an individual with an income tax rate of 30%. For every $100,000 that individual makes, $30,000 ($100,000 x 0.30) must be paid as tax.
There are three main types of tax rates: progressive, proportional and regressive.
2. For example, (as of 2005) in New York State the state tax rate is 4.25%. If you buy a $1,000 television from a store, the total purchase price will be $1,042.50, with $42.50 in tax paid to the state of New York.
