All billings are in accordance with the terms of the contract.
Tax applies to sales price of $100 per unit with no deduction for freight charge since the freight charges are not separately stated. The contract is for a delivered price and requires delivery to the purchaser. Title does not pass to the purchaser prior to delivery.
Tax applies to $100 per unit since the responsibility for the payment of the freight is upon the purchaser, and the seller makes no charge for freight. Since the carrier will bill the purchaser for the actual freight charge, there will be a separate statement of the freight. The property is not sold for a delivered price.
The measure of tax is $100 per unit less the amount of the freight paid to the carrier and shown on the payment voucher sent to the retailer by the purchaser.
The sale is for a delivered price. Separately stated transportation charges are excludable from the measure of tax since the transportation occurred after the sale of the property. If the contract for sale explicitly provided for passage of title upon delivery to the destination, then the measure of tax would be $100 per unit since the sale was for a delivered price and title did not pass prior to transportation.
Tax applies to $100 per unit since the contract is not for a delivered price and shipment is by independent carrier.
Tax applies to $100 because the sale is for a delivered price and there is no showing that title was to pass upon delivery at the destination. A contract will be construed as a shipment contract unless it expressly requires delivery at destination point. If the contract for sale explicitly provided for passage of title upon delivery to the destination, then the measure of tax would be $110 since the sale was for a delivered price and title did not pass prior to transportation.
Under these circumstances, tax applies to $1,000 since the only separate statement of freight is the freight equalized with x city in the amount of $100. If the actual freight paid to the carrier for the transportation of the property from the retailer's place of business or other point from which shipment is made directly to the purchaser is less than $100, the exclusion will be limited to the amount paid to the carrier.
The sale is not for a delivered price. On the basis of the above billing, a separate statement of freight is made in the amount of $200. Accordingly, the measure of tax is $1,100 minus $200, or $900.
