[Always Right]

I believe the economic expansion alone will cause the rates to drop. No matter what the rate, though, I still expect to see it calculated correctly from whatever rate is in the final bill. It that is 23% t-i, then the correct t-e rate would be 29.87% since it would be derived from the bill's figure.

For discussion purposes, the rate is 30%. Get over it. If you wish to use the 29.87% number, knock yourself out. I am getting a kick over how annal you are being about this.

Weak-minded ones are always easily amused. Children and puppies are the same way.

Keep it in mind ... 29.87% as calculated from a stated 23% because, you see, some sales tax rates are quoted to two decimal places - your idiocy not withstanding.
