*PAR Points Formula:
Position Factor x Buyin Factor x Entry Factor
(1 AU = 1 NZD)

Position Factor:
1st - 150
2nd - 120
3rd - 100
4th - 80
5th - 70
6th - 60
7th - 50
8th - 40
9th - 30
10th - 20

Buy-in Factor:
AU$100 - AU$299, Factor = 1.5
AU$300 - AU$749, Factor = 2.0
AU$750 - AU$1999, Factor = 2.5
AU$2000 - AU$4999, Factor = 3
AU$5000 - AU$9999, Factor = 3.5
AU$10000 & above, Factor = 4

Entry Factor:
1 - 49 entries, Factor = 1
50 - 99 entries, Factor = 1.5
100 - 149 entries, Factor = 2
150 - 299 entries, Factor = 2.5
300 - 499 entries, Factor = 3
500 - 749 entries, Factor = 3.5
750 & above entries, Factor = 4

Example:
A player wins a tournament with a buy-in of AU$300 and 160 entries.
The formula used to calculate the PAR is: 150 pts x Buy-in Factor 2 x Entry Factor 2.5 = Total Ranking Points = 750.

The above formula closely resembles the European Rankings Formula.
