I cannot help you with CA, but even if you lose money in Michigan, the single business tax will bankrupt you, since it is charged on your sales.  It is a hot political issue here and will probably decide the gubinatorial election in "08

If you are offering a service for a fee you are a business.  The sales tax rules are state mandated not federal.  Check with your local state tax office. In Arkansas it would be the Department of Finance and Administration.  In Florida it would be the State Tax Collector's Office.

The income tax and the sales tax are direct taxes. You see what you are paying.  Indirect taxes are taxes paid by a business, you know that they are paying them but they are hidden in the cost of what you are buying.

you need to have a Tax ID number as a business (not your SSN) and then simply send an email or call the distributor to setup a reseller agreement.  some may require that you pre-purchase a certain amount but most are pay as you go.  good luck!

Unless you register your business, it's called self-proprietorship. Don't forget to do your taxes.

You should contact your local (and, in the US, your state) tax authorities.  These are the people who may require sales tax and returns from you.  If you have not done the returns before, they should have no problem with getting you the forms and giving you some help to get them completed, so you can do them right.  Keep notes of the numbers you call, the people you talk to, and the advice they give you, because mistakes might happen, and those notes may help you avoid being penalized for it if they do.

There is, but i don't know if it applies for the whole country or only for the border zone. \n\nWhat I do, is go to an "exports boker" or something like that (most times they have locals in the shopping malls), and give him my receipts, so that he makes a pay order with my name in it, for the ammount of the sales tax. It usually takes an entire day for you to be able to get the money from that pay order.

Yes you can, you can even do both via the Internet by using a members only site.  Depending on the state your in will depend on how much information you need from the retailers that you sell to.  You will have to keep records of their tax numbers for sure but some states require more.  The retail site you will have to worry about sales tax for orders from your state only.  Yes it can be very profitable but you need to check and see how your prices compare to other wholesalers.

Here's a few hints for you:\n\nTo make it easy: write a single Procedure that can be called multiple times from anywhere in the form. 1) to Calculate the total, and 2) to calculate the total with tax. Then you can call that from multiple places.\n\nYou know the prices for the items are fixed, so you have those numbers already. You just need to make sure the qty fields are valid. And you already learned how to validate a field, right?\n\nEach field has a "depart" event, which is triggered when the cursor leaves that field. Each of the QTY field's "depart" should trigger the recalculation. \n\nYou can't multiply a string.

multiply the tax rate by the total sales.\n\nIf item is $100 and sales tax is 8.75%   you would multiply 100 X .0875 answer woiuld be $8.75  hope that helps

Being in sales, the only tax you would have to pay is Florida tax if this company you ordered from charges tax.\nThey cannot charge you tax of their own state which you are not in. Now, if you're getting the item shipped to somewhere in PA, then yes, you'd have to pay.\nBasically, you pay tax (if charged) to whatever state you're shipping to.\nJust to be sure, I would check with the company or organization you are ordering from. Many companies have their own policies.

You need to keep your business and personal funds seperate. So do get a business checking account. It is usually called a DBA (doing business as) account. \n\nIf you register your business as a sole proprietor you will most likely file your income from the business on your personal income tax.\n\nJust check with your local taxing authority to be sure how it is done in your area.

it may depend on your state (assuming you're from the US), you will probably need a certificate for sales tax and.. well that's about it from what I remember. if you mean by license a corporation, LLC, or SP, then no. you can be a private individual and sell online. however, if you're going to setup a shopping cart and not go through a 3rd party like CCNow (and similiar reseller merchants) you may need more accountability. this is actually a question you should direct to your secretary of state office
