How this is calculated
The annual gross is your hourly rate multiplied by your weekly hours and by 52 weeks. From there, the same New Zealand PAYE rules apply as for a salary: income tax across the IRD brackets, the 1.75% ACC earner's levy, and your KiwiSaver contribution — with the Independent Earner Tax Credit applied automatically where you're eligible. Add a student loan or change your KiwiSaver rate in the hourly pay calculator for an exact figure.
