Worked Example

Let's calculate the sales tax for a $100 purchase in St. Louis County, which has a local tax rate of 1%.

  1. Purchase Amount = $100
  2. State Tax Rate = 4.225%
  3. Local Tax Rate = 1%
  4. State Tax = $100 × 0.04225 = $4.225
  5. Local Tax = $100 × 0.01 = $1.00
  6. Total Sales Tax = $4.225 + $1.00 = $5.225
  7. Final Price = $100 + $5.225 = $105.225

So, a $100 purchase in St. Louis County would cost $105.23 after tax.
