What is sales tax where you live? Bonus points if you can divy it up by federal, state and city.
Only one UK person need post ;))))) the VAT is the same all over there isn't it?
I think it's like 9.5% in fayetteville college town. In russelleville it's like 8.5%. I used to know how much state tax was, but I forgot since then.
Sales tax? It's 6% around here. I didn't know it differed from state to state, though. D:
At home I know it's 4% county, 4% state for a grand total of 8%. (Or 8.25% in some places, with 4.25% county. or at least it used to be.) That's in good ol' upstate New York.
Down here in PA, it's 6% total, though I don't know how it gets split up among the various governments.
I don't know the fed/state/local breakdown, but it's around 7.25% here in The Woodlands/Conroe, Texas.
25% yay. Try beating that one.
exceptions: food, which is 14% and transport which is 8%
I'll be the UK's representative for this thread, then. VAT is 17.5% here. :greenie:
Oneida County: Combined 9.00%
I don't know anything other than it's 5% in Maryland and DC. Pennsylvania has 7% on everything except for food and clothing; actually, food might even be out of the question, as well as it has been quite some time.
GST: 7%
PST: 8%
Fun times. Look them up in wikipedia.
or you could just tell us 8)
Fed sales tax = 0%
Illinois sales tax = 6%
Flossmoor sales tax = 1.5%
Chicago Sales tax = 3%
I could on and on into different towns but this is good enough :D
Springfield, MO has a sales tax of 6.275%. :)
Actually V.A.T. in the UK varies between 5 and 40% :)Quote:
