- Description
Text reads 'Cash jobs in the Waikato estimated to result in lost taxes of $460 million a year... News.' A man standing on a footpath stares in astonishment at a manhole nearby from which comes a voice that says 'Welcome to the hidden economy.' Context: Waikato workers and bosses dodging the IRD by paying and pocketing cash mean about $460 million a year in lost taxes - and that's a conservative estimate. Yet many say they'd struggle to survive if they declared everything they paid out or earned. The OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) estimates New Zealand's cash economy - also known as the black or hidden economy - to be 7-13 per cent of gross domestic product (GDP).
