Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $52,982 to pay you $1,766,050. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $4.1 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
39.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 38% tax rate now rises to 39.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary

If you make $1,766,050 a year living in New Zealand, you will be taxed $670,873. That means that your net pay will be $1,095,177 per year, or $91,265 per month. Your average tax rate is 38.0% and your marginal tax rate is 39.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of $100 in your salary will be taxed $39, hence, your net pay will only increase by $61.
