Tax Table Programming Example - Illinois 6% Tax Table
Examine the printed tax table for the tax you are programming.
Calculate the break point differences by subtracting the high side of the previous
range from the high side of the sale amount range.
Examine the pattern of break point differences to determine when the break points
begin to repeat. Mark the beginning break points that do not fit a pattern as “non-
repeat breaks.” Mark the break points that are repeating in a pattern as “repeat
breaks.” Count the number of repeat and non-repeat breaks.
