Description
A sales tax is a tax paid to a governing body for the sales of certain goods and services. Usually, laws allow the seller to collect funds for the tax from the consumer at the point of purchase. When a tax on goods or services is paid to a governing body directly by a consumer it is usually called a use tax. often laws provide the exemption of certain goods or services from sales and use tax such as food, education and medicines. A value added tax collected on goods and services is related to a sales tax. Wholesale sales tax, a tax on sales of wholesale of tangible personal property when in a form packaged and labeled ready for shipment or delivery to final users and consumers.
Sales tax on online purchasers operate in a different manner. Generally there are four types of electronic commerce: intermediaries, retail, business-to-business and media all of which are affected by consumer response to sales tax. However while consumers are technically supposed to pay a sales tax when it comes to cross state border transaction, the practicality of enforcing it is impossible. As a result online retail stores have had a distinct advantage in that they do not have to charge a sales tax. That has led many economist to examine consumer sensitivity when it comes to sales taxes.
Economists at the Organization for economic Co-operation and development ( OECD) studied the effect of various types of taxes on the economic growth of developed nations within OECD and found that sales taxes are one of the least harmful taxes for growth. Because the rate of a sales tax does not change based on a person's income or wealth sales taxes are generally considered regressive.
