What is Sales Tax?

Sales tax is a small percentage of money added to the cost of most things you buy. When you purchase something, like clothes, electronics, or even some services, the price you see isn’t always the final amount you’ll pay. That’s because sales tax is tacked on at the end of the transaction. This tax is collected by the government and is used to fund various public services, like schools, roads, and emergency services. The rate of sales tax can vary depending on where you live, as different states, cities, and even counties can set their rates.

For example, if you’re buying a $100 item in an area with a 5% sales tax, you’ll pay an extra $5 at checkout, making your total $105. While it may seem small on individual purchases, sales tax adds up over time and helps support the community in many ways.
