EBIS 5 supports three taxing methods:
(1) Standard: Uses a standard tax % rate
Example: Tax Rate: 7.75%
Total amount taxable: $2,500.00
Tax: $2,500.00 * 7.75% = $193.75
(2) Dual Rate: Charges two different tax rates using a determined break-off amount.
Example: Break-off amount: $2,000.
Rate <= to: 6.50% (this is the rate less than or equal to break-off)
Rate Above: 6.00% (this is the rate above the break-off)
Total taxable amount in sample work order: $2,500.00
Tax: ($2,000 * 6.25%) + (500 * 6.00%) = 125 + 30 = $155.00
(3) Fluctuating: Charges one percentage, depending on the amount.
Example: Break-off amount: $2,000.
Rate <= to: 6.50% (this is the rate less than or equal to break-off)
Rate Above: 6.00% (this is the rate above the break-off)
Total taxable amount in sample work order: $2,500.00
Tax: ($2,500 * 6.00%) = $150.00
