Tax Table Programming
In some cases, a tax that is entered as a percentage does not follow exactly the tax charts that apply in
your area (even if the tax chart is based on a percentage). In these cases, we recommend that you enter
your tax using tax table programming. This method will match tax collection exactly to the break
points of your tax table.
Before programming, obtain a copy of the tax table you wish to program. You will need the printed
tax table if you wish to determine the break point entries yourself.
Note: You can enter up to 60 break points.
Determining Break Point Entries
1.
Examine the printed tax table for the tax you are programming.
2.
Refer to the “Tax Table Programming Example - Illinois 6% Tax Table” to help with this
exercise.
3.
Calculate the break point differences by subtracting the high side of the previous range
from the high side of the dollar range.
4.
Examine the pattern of break point differences to determine when the break points begin
to repeat. Mark the beginning break points that do not fit a pattern as “non-repeat
breaks.” Mark the break points that are repeating in a pattern as “repeat breaks.”
