2. History of Sales Tax. • Sales taxes are often seen as good tax systems for economic growth, savings, and investment. Texas cities, counties, transit authorities and special purpose districts have the option of imposing an additional local sales tax. Texas’ Sales Tax is 6.25% • Taxes have been around for many years. I think the money used for sales tax should be donated to the hospitals and medical clinics for people with medical needs. Sales Tax is based on a percentage of a purchase at retail. The rate is set by the state where the item is bought. However, some states do not have Sales Tax, Some counties have Sales Tax.

5. What I learned. • I learned that different cities and states have different sales taxes. • I also learned that a percent is part of a whole. • In excel, you can type in formulas in a box, and it will write out a formula and solve it, so you don’t have to. • When creating my graph I learned all the different ways you can put in percents and numbers.
