Overpaying Sales Tax Hurts Bottom Line
O&A Identifies Bundles Of Money In Unnecessary Tax Payments
A successful pest control company had expanded into six states, but was unclear as to whether their services were subject to Sales Tax and whether they were required to pay tax on their purchases. Not surprisingly, each state treated their services and
the related purchases a little differently for Sales & Use Tax purposes.
The company sought guidance from the states on several occasions and received conflicting information. The last thing this company wanted was a huge tax problem on their hands should an auditor show up on their doorstep. They called on
Olivier & Associates to research and advise them as to what they should charge tax on and what they should pay tax on.
We developed a state-by-state basis matrix advising the company on which services were subject to Sales Tax and whether or not to pay Use Tax on their purchases. We also provided them with the supporting regulations and case law for
our conclusions.
The result: Olivier & Associates' research allowed the company to begin purchasing its supplies for resale in several states, properly avoiding tax on these items. Our client will save tens of thousands of dollars each year
in taxes.
