According to the OECD, Denmark (26.4 percent), Norway (19.7 percent), and Sweden (22.1 percent) all raise a high amount of tax revenue as a percent of GDP from individual income taxes and payroll taxes. This is compared to the 15 percent of GDP raised by the United States through its individual income taxes and payroll taxes for instance. In order to raise a lot of income tax revenue, income tax rates in Scandinavian countries are rather high except for that of Norway. Denmark's top marginal effective income tax rate is 60.4 percent. Sweden's is 56.4 percent. Norway's top marginal tax rate is 39 percent. Scandinavian income taxes raise a lot of revenue because they are actually considered flat. In other words, they tax most people at high rates, not just the high-income taxpayers. The top marginal tax rate of 60 percent in Denmark applies to all income over 1.2 times the average income in Denmark. Sweden and Norway have similarly flat income tax systems. Sweden's top marginal tax rate of 56.9 percent applies to all income over 1.5 times the average income in Sweden. Norway's top marginal tax rate of 39 percent applies to all income over 1.6 times the average Norwegian income.

Average is the total amount of tax divided by the total amount of income...it therefore includes all deductions and tax brackets, usually lower % ones, getting to the total as part of it...average. The marginal, is on the NEXT $ of income. So it basically is going to be closer (or exactly) the highest tax rate you pay, being applicable to the last bracket your in, and generally having already used up all dedcutions available, and in fact, maybe losing some because some dedcutions drop off above certain incomes. Clear as mud? Marginal rate...the amount of tax pid on the NEXT $ of income...average rate includes the lower brackets and he tax, or no tax, on the first amounts of income.
No the federal tax brackets would NOT be your average income tax rate on your income. Each separate federal tax bracket amount is your marginal tax rate for that amount of your taxable income that is in that bracket amount.
