MissFemmeBot | If something is 13 dollars, would the tax be $1.95? |
tax here is 15 percent of every dollar. |
|


mel
|
yea 15% of a buck is 15 cents x 13 = 195. but then the tax on the 95 cents is like 14 cents so 209. |
|

amandafofanda66
|
That is correct. |
|

fatcat
 |
yes. that is correct. all you have to do is multiply 13 by .15 |
|

greyforge

it actually depends on whether 13 dollars is the gross cost before tax or the net cost after tax...
for the net cost of something to arrive at 13 dollars at a 15% tax rate, the base cost of the item would have to be $11.30, the tax of which would come to $1.70.
$1.70 is not only 15% of 11.30, but also, 11.30+1.70=13.00
otherwise, if the gross cost--before tax--of the item is $13.00, then 15% of it is 1.95, which would combine for a total of $14.95 |

5% in Maine.
0% in New Hampshire. |

It depends where you are in the country. GST (goods and services tax) exists everywhere. It used to be 7%, but over the past couple of years it's been lowered to 5%. Many provinces also have PST (provincial sales tax). PST in Ontario is 8%, so the total tax would be 13%, or $1.69. Then again, Alberta doesn't have PST, so the tax would only be $0.65. You can see which provinces have PST and how much it is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sales_taxes_in_Canada |
