[nycphp-talk] calculating state taxes?

I thought the store charged tax to the delivery state - that's why some 
people wouldn't pay and some would - I have to pay sales tax depending on 
the county of DELIVERY not where I live.

  While were on the topic, does the store just charge local tax from where 
the store is located?  Or does it have to charge tax from the purchasers 
locale?



  We were thinking from where the store is located, because after all isn't 
that where it's being sold from.



  I've got a store going live any day now.

  In New York, every country adds a county sales tax to the state sales tax. 
North Carolina (my current residence) does this, too.

  I know many other states work like this, too.

  Yes this makes sense if you are dealing with NYC but not many other places 
have county set tax rates ;)



  If you are dealing with NYC use Ken's suggestion

  I have a shopping cart and need to calculate state taxes on the products 
for the state the business is in.  Is there some type of script/code that 
already is set up to calculate this?


  Tax tables are available from NYS gov site.

  The calculation is easy, record the taxable county in your table, fetch in 
the rate, and multiply it by the taxable product total.

  Presumably the customer will need a report that prints out the tax 
collected by county for a given period.
