• 1

  New Zealand publishes end of service gratuity figures in New Zealand Dollar, revised periodically — enter the rate currently in force for your case in New Zealand rather than an older stored figure so the result matches the official calculation.

• 2

  When comparing two options for New Zealand, run both through this end of service gratuity with the same rate and the same New Zealand Dollar basis; then the difference you see reflects the options themselves rather than an inconsistency between the two inputs.

• 3

  Keep the end of service gratuity amount and rate for New Zealand on one period and one basis — monthly New Zealand Dollar figures with an annual rate, or gross with net, give a number that is arithmetically right but misleading in practice.

• Gross and net are different numbers: a New Zealand Dollar salary quoted for New Zealand is normally gross, and the End Of Service Gratuity result only matches your payslip after New Zealand deductions and contributions are subtracted. Confirm which side each input represents.

• Income tax is progressive: applying New Zealand's top marginal band to a whole New Zealand Dollar salary overstates the bill, because only the slice above each threshold pays that band. Split the income into brackets instead of one flat multiplication.
