Programming the Sales Tax
Now you need to select and program the sales tax for your area. You can use 1 of 2
tax types in the US:
• Straight tax: The sales amount is multiplied by a flat percentage rate such as
5%. For example, on a $1.00 item, $.05 is added for tax.
• Table tax: The tax is charged based on a tax table you obtain from your local or
state government tax office.
Straight tax is the easiest and most commonly used tax rate. Most states and areas
use straight tax. To find out which sales tax type and percentage rate you should use,
contact your local government office.
