Way off topic - vendor sales tax

If the ship-to customer consumes the product and does not have a resale certificate to present to your supplier, and your supplier is billing you, then the supplier should bill you for sales tax also. Just pay the tax to the supplier and bill the customer for same.

If shipped directly to you and you are reselling, you then would not be charged tax. You then ship to customer and charge sales tax to the customer. Same result.

Ok Accounting guys...please explain this one to me.



I am buying a part that I am reselling to my customer. I am having my
vendor ship directly to my customer.



Why the hell am I being charged taxes on this JUST BECAUSE it is
shipping directly to the customer? If it came to me first I would not
be charged taxes!



Please explain...this makes no sense whatsoever!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are at the other end of the problem. We have to charge Florida state sales
tax to someone if they order from us and has it drop shipped to Florida unless
the buyer has a Florida tax exempt ID. In Florida, they don't care who sold it
or who actually paid for it. If it ships to Florida, they want their state
sales tax.
