use tax based on the rate in effect in the jurisdiction where the purchaser takes
possession of the item. The purchaser should calculate state use tax by multiplying
the applicable state use tax rate by $800, and recording the resulting state use tax
due with the use tax Reason Code 03. The purchaser should calculate the local use
tax due by multiplying the applicable local use tax rate by $800.00 and recording the

A Georgia resident or Georgia business purchases a $900.00 item outside of
Georgia, pays the other state’s 5% state sales tax at the time of purchase and
returns to Georgia with the item. The purchaser will receive credit against Georgia’s
4% state use tax due and thus
owes
no additional state use tax. The purchaser
owes local use tax at the rate in effect in the jurisdiction where the purchaser lives or
where the business is located. The purchaser should calculate the local use tax due
by multiplying the applicable local use tax rate by $900.00 and recording the
resulting local use tax due. The use tax Reason Code is 04.
