Hi friends, I am so excited I'm in the 8-step process for my R1S. I'm going through my order summary page and seeing that the total taxes applied amount to about 11.87% of my vehicle subtotal. Does this sound right? I thought it would be closer to 10%. Also found a discrepancy in the row where it says "6.50% tax applied" but the amount is 6.62% of the vehicle subtotal. What am I missing? Should I be including destination fee, title & reg etc. in the total before calculating the percentages?
Edit: is the expected 10.xx% rate without the RTA tax? Maybe that's what it is ...
Edit 2: tracked down the discrepancy. The taxes seem to be applied to the vehicle subtotal PLUS destination ($1,500). So the updated table looks like this:
Item | Cost | % of vehicle Subtotal | |
Vehicle subtotal | $79,450.00 | ||
Vehicle Taxes | |||
Vehicle sales tax 6.50% tax applied for WA 981xx | $5,261.75 | 6.62% | |
Sales Tax - MV Surcharge | $242.85 | 0.31% | |
Sales Tax - Local | $3,035.63 | 3.82% | Total |
Sales Tax - RTA | $890.45 | 1.12% | 11.87% |
