Answer

You get taxed at different rates for parts of you income:

You are taxed 12.5% when you earn up to $14000

21% from $14001 - $40000

33% $40001 - $70000

39% $70001 +

45% with no IRD number

You need to add on the ACC levy on top of this which is 1.4% for the 2009 financial year.

Here is an example to work out how much you should be taxed:

Johns taxable income for the year was $65238

up to $14000 at 12.5% = $1750

$14001 - $40000 at 21% = $5460

$40000 - $65238 @ 33% = $8328.54

Total tax to pay = $15538.54

What taxes do businesses pay?

Depending where you live you may have to pay different taxes but if it is any help in Australia and NZ you have to pay Goods and Services Tax (only if you are registered for GST - there is a criteria for business that need to be registered) and usually some form of pay as you go/ earn or provisional tax which is just pre paying tax during the year so that the end of year tax bill wont be so large. (This tax is just the normal tax you would need to pay on income earned - just like you as an individual) This is usually worked out by using you last years tax bill with normal uplift - it can be varied though if you think you are going to do a lot better or a lot worse than last year (warning: you must not be too far off the actual amount you earn if you are estimating because then you may get penalties and interest.) If you employ people you will also need to withhold tax for them which you have to also pay on a monthly basis.Summary of approximate amounts:- GST every quarter (the GST amount you collected in gaining your income minus the input tax credits you paid on your expenses)- Tax withheld every month on behalf of your employees- Provisional tax/ terminal tax or PAYG instalments every quarter.
