Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $11 to pay you $360. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $1.5 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
14.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 11.9% tax rate now rises to 14.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary

If you make $360 a year living in New Zealand, you will be taxed $43. That means that your net pay will be $317 per year, or $26 per month. Your average tax rate is 11.9% and your marginal tax rate is 11.9%. 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 $11.9, hence, your net pay will only increase by $88.1.

Bonus Example

A $1,000 bonus will generate an extra $881 of net incomes. A $5,000 bonus will generate an extra $4,405 of net incomes.
