Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $3,360 to pay you $112,000. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $2.93 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
28.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 26.3% tax rate now rises to 28.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $112,000 a year living in New Zealand, you will be taxed $29,437. That means that your net pay will be $82,563 per year, or $6,880 per month. Your average tax rate is 26.3% and your marginal tax rate is 34.4%. 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 $34.39, hence, your net pay will only increase by $65.61.
Bonus Example
A $1,000 bonus will generate an extra $656 of net incomes. A $5,000 bonus will generate an extra $3,281 of net incomes.
