Income tax is a levy governments impose on the earnings of individuals and businesses, calculated based on taxable income after deductions and credits. Tax accountants, financial planners, and payroll professionals need to understand income tax brackets, filing requirements, and compliance rules to prepare returns and advise clients or employers. Systems vary widely by country, ranging from progressive rate structures to flat taxes.
