Introduced by: Stephen H. Martin | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Retail sales and use tax; countertops.  Provides that dealers selling and installing countertops shall be deemed retailers for purposes of the sales and use tax. As a retailer, the dealer would be required to collect the tax from the customer. Under current law, dealers selling and installing countertops are deemed to be the ultimate users and consumers of the countertops and pay the sales and use tax instead of collecting it from customers.

Under current law, dealers selling and installing fences, venetian blinds, window shades, awnings, storm windows and doors, locks and locking devices, floor coverings, cabinets, kitchen equipment, and window or air conditioning units are deemed to be retailers and collect the sales and use tax from customers as opposed to paying it. The bill would provide the same tax treatment to dealers selling and installing countertops.
