To find out how different occupations fare under the new tax brackets, we started with the most recently released Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates of the average annual salaries for those occupations. We calculated the tax burden for a single filer using the standard deduction earning that average salary, based on the tax brackets and rates shown in the above graphic. We also found the effective tax rate, or the percent share of the average income owed in taxes, for each of those occupations.

Again, these figures are calculated for federal income taxes only and do not take into account state income taxes, though some states don't tax income at all.
