Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $156 to pay you $5,211. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $3.01 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
29.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 27.1% tax rate now rises to 29.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $125,064 a year living in New Zealand, you will be taxed $33,930. That means that your net pay will be $91,134 per year, or $7,595 per month. Your average tax rate is 27.1% 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.
