What are use and sales taxe?

Sales tax is a tax paid to a business by another business or an individual when they buy something. For example, when someone buys groceries, they pay sales tax in addition to the purchase price. When businesses buy items that they do not directly use, but are involved in some way in doing business with their customers, they do not pay sales tax. If the item is sold, the customer pays sales tax. However, some businesses do not directly resell items they buy without paying sales tax on them. For example, a business that has service contracts would not charge their customer for the items provided as part of the service contracts. In that situation, the purchasing business pays a "use tax" on the items they purchase in order to deliver on the service contracts. The customer, who has the service contract, never sees a bill for the item(s) or the use tax paid for them.


What impact does a pluralistic society have on business?

The impact that a pluralistic society would have on businesses is good in the sense that there are different cultures living in one area. For example, in Pennsylvania, there are many small Amish towns, as well as normal cities surrounding them, the impact of the Amish people and the English people as they call it, is great since the Amish can sell their items to the businesses of the English people, giving the English businesses much profit and the Amish get the business from the English. Without such a society, English and Amish businesses would decline in finances, since the English need to pay little for Amish items and the Amish make out nice financially.
