If we charge a fee to sharpen a mower blade, do we add tax on that or is a fee for a service like labor?

If you did not sell a product, something that you touch, see, smell, etc, then no tax.  Service, such as sharpening a blade, labor on car repairs, are all non-taxable.

It is your lucky Day because this plan is already a bill in the House (HR 25) and Senate (S 25) it is called the Fair Tax!!\n\nIt was developed by the finance department at MIT.\n\nAll products and services are taxed as the same rate but this tax is included in the posted price of the product BY LAW. (the receipt will show how much tax was paid)\n\nThis will eliminate the wholes in the tax system for interest groups and give people more freedom on how to use their money.\n\nFood is taxed but every household (may be dependent on income) gets a Pre-Bait check for all the cost of the tax on the basics of living for that month.  \n\nThere are no taxes on used products so no taxes at your garage sale or on your used house.\n\nNo tax on savings, investments, income, businesses, etc.\n\nThings are only taxed once at the retail level.\n\nI am personally excited about this and I think everyone should contact their Senator and Representative and tell them to support the Fair Tax!!

Fair? This government taxes you for everything: being born, living and dying. It will always find a way of squeezing more blood out of a stone, duty free or not.

If the tax rate is 8.25%:\n\nPrice*1.0825=total\n\nYou add 1 to the tax amount (.0825) so the original value will be added in as well.\n\nIf you just multiply by .0825 then your answer will just be the tax and not the cost.

Call around and ask other lawn care services what is cost to have a normal lawn mowed or charge by the square foot.\n\nMilton,Fl. is a small town but their are a lot of lawns to cut.

Not unless they expressly said that they were and you confirmed that your fee was on that basis.\n\nIf they misrepresented (i.e. we are not talking about a later ruling by the IRS) then you may well have recourse due to fraudulent misrepresentation.\n\nEither way time to up the billing rate :-)

This is a subject of the State Government concerned.From your query it is not clear in which State you are located.However, in most of the States; it is leviable.The activity spcified by you is liable to Works Contract Tax.

Create your own job! Get a lawn mower, some gasoline and ask folks in the area if they'd need their grass cut. Charge them a fair price....if you think it'll only take you an hour....then charge them like $20.00...or so....do a good job and they may want you to come back the follwoing week. Get enough folks and you'll be able to make yourself some money.

That depends on  what your store's codes are. Most businesses have their own procedure with free items. Most of the time it's subtotal, then the code for the free item and total.

In general there are no regulations regarding prices that people charge for services. The price is set by the market.
