Do I Add Shipping Charges Before or After Tax?

In summary, to calculate the tax amount, you simply multiply the cost of the item by the tax rate. The purpose of adding tax to the cost of an item is to generate revenue for the government, which is then used to fund public services and infrastructure. The tax rate is determined by the government and varies depending on location and type of item. Whether or not tax needs to be added to a purchase depends on laws and regulations, and in most cases, taxes are non-refundable. However, if you believe you were charged an incorrect amount of tax, you may be able to request a refund or correction from the taxing authority.

Hello all! I just did my first show tonight and am now doing the order forms and am just wondering, do I add the shipping charge on before or after the tax? Thanks in advance! Amy
 
Shipping is taxable to all states except: AK, DC, DE, IA, ID, IL, MA, MT, NH, OH, OK, OR, UT and WY.So, unless you're in one of those states, add shipping, then do tax.
