How it works
Sales tax is added at the register as a percentage of the price. Rates vary widely by state and locality — combined state-plus-local rates range from zero to over 10% — so the same item can cost noticeably more in one city than another.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find the pre-tax price from a total?
Divide the total by one plus the rate as a decimal. For example, a $107.25 total at 7.25% comes from $107.25 ÷ 1.0725 = $100 before tax.
