US mixed-rate sales-tax basket
Price a basket whose products may have different local tax treatment. Enter the applicable combined rate for each product.
Your inputs
Start with the example values, then replace them with your own. For tables, keep the vertical bar separators and use a dot for decimals.
Illustrative inputs are not certified current rates or an entitlement decision. Confirm the country, year, eligibility and contract. This limited model is not a tax return, payroll service or financial/legal advice. Do not act on it without verifying the applicable rules.
Tool inputs are processed in your browser and are not submitted by this tool. Existing site analytics and advertising services have their own privacy terms.

How it works
Multiply each pretax line by its entered percentage and total the lines. The model does not locate a jurisdiction or decide product exemptions, tax holidays, destination sourcing, shipping taxability or merchant rounding; verify each rate before purchase.
Worked example
These sample results use the original example inputs in the form. They do not change when you edit your inputs; your own result appears in the workspace.
- Basket tax: 19.2
- Basket total: 319.2

| Food | 60 | 0 | 60 |
| Equipment | 200 | 16 | 216 |
Read the result carefully
Results depend on the values and assumptions shown above. Change one input at a time to see its effect. A blank or unavailable result means the data does not support a calculation; it is not zero.
