Charging Tax on Retail Sales
Associates do not need to collect sales tax from retail customers unless the Associate is tax-exempt and has supplied USANA with a resale certificate. Tax exempt Associates with a resale certificate report all the sales tax they collect to the local government.
All other Associates are subject to the agreements USANA has entered into with taxing authorities and are charged tax on the suggested retail price of the product, regardless of the actual price paid by the end retail customer. USANA then remits the sales tax to the relevant taxing authority. Associates are not required to collect or report the tax, thus they do not need to show sales tax on the retail receipt given to their retail customers since the sales tax was already paid when the Associate purchased the product from USANA.
Refer to USANA Terms and Policies, Sections 38 and 40.
