How is the income tax calculated in New Zealand?

In New Zealand, the income tax is calculated based on a progressive tax system. The calculation involves the following steps:

Determine the Taxable Income: This includes all income earned by an individual, including employment income, business income, rental income, and other taxable earnings.
Apply Tax Thresholds: The taxable income is subject to various tax thresholds. The first step is to determine if the individual is a resident or non-resident for tax purposes. Different tax thresholds and rates apply to residents and non-residents.
Calculate Marginal Tax Rates: Once the tax thresholds are determined, the taxable income is divided into different tax brackets. Each tax bracket has a corresponding marginal tax rate. Apply the appropriate marginal tax rate to each portion of the taxable income.
Apply Tax Credits and Rebates: Deduct any applicable tax credits and rebates from the calculated tax amount. Tax credits and rebates can include items such as the Independent Earner Tax Credit (IETC), Family Tax Credit, and Working for Families Tax Credits.
Calculate the Final Tax Payable: Subtract the total tax credits and rebates from the calculated tax amount to arrive at the final income tax payable.
