So in King County Washington we have several different sales tax rates that can affect a business. In Seattle and Bellevue and other parts of King County we have a tax rate on prepared food that is higher then our regular sales tax on retail goods. How can this effect your business? Well lets say you are a restaurant or bar that also sells shirts or hats, or maybe cooking equipment, recipe book, etc. your prepared food would be one rate, and your retail goods would be a different rate. I'm not going to mention the rates as I would rather have you check with the county and state! I can just tell you from our experience in the Cash Register and POS systems in Seattle that there are multiple rates!
Also if you are a retail outlet that also have a little deli or snack bar you would need to pay attention to this as well. Lets say you are a c-store selling cigs and beer that are taxable but you also have a deli that sells jojos and chicken! Well I would bet that your jojo's and chicken will be taxed at a higher rate!
