NZ pricing guide (private) · tap for markup examples

There is no reliable single NZ average markup for every product or business. Stats NZ and Inland Revenue publish gross-profit benchmarks by industry and business turnover, but those are whole-business figures, not a recommended markup for each item. A business selling parts and labour cannot copy its overall gross-profit ratio into a part markup field.

The table below is an illustrative starting point by item cost, not measured NZ averages. Compare your final price with local suppliers and similar jobs, and allow for freight, warranty risk, overheads and your labour charge.

Wholesale cost per itemExample markup on costExample selling price before tax
Under $5050–100%$20 cost → $30–$40
$50–$19935–60%$100 cost → $135–$160
$200–$49925–50%$400 cost → $500–$600
$500 and above15–35%$800 cost → $920–$1,080

Markup is based on wholesale cost: $100 cost + 50% markup = $150 selling price before tax. That is a 33% gross margin before overheads. If your cost includes tax, remove recoverable tax before comparing prices. RRP can be a useful check, but it is not a required selling price.

Business settings

These details appear on new invoices. Finalised records keep their issued details. Changing currency changes the label on a draft; it does not convert its amounts.

This is the default for new jobs. You can switch the form on any draft.
Tax helper setup (optional)

The tax view uses these choices for an estimate. Set the actual rate above. Check your registered basis and eligibility with your tax authority or adviser.

Choose a rate on a service line. The hours entered there calculate the labour charge automatically.

Tax helper

A working summary from finalised invoices, recorded payments and expenses entered here. It is not a filed tax return.

Include wages and other taxable income for the full year; the result excludes tax already deducted.

Business expenses

Enter actual purchases and running costs here. Wholesale prices on invoice lines are not counted as expenses automatically. Keep supplier receipts separately.

Only enter tax you can claim and the business portion you can deduct. Capital items, stock and mixed-use costs may need different treatment.

NZ sole-trader income-tax figures use the published individual rates for the 2026 and 2027 tax years. They exclude ACC, other deductions, tax already paid and provisional tax. Check the final return with Inland Revenue or an adviser.

Stock list

Add products you keep on hand. Selecting one on an invoice fills its price and deducts quantity when the invoice is finalised. Drafts, quotes and services do not use stock.
