Formula Used

The calculation follows these steps:

Net Proceeds = Sale Price - Arizona Sales Tax - Registration Fees - Additional Fees Arizona Sales Tax = Sale Price × 5.6% (Arizona sales tax rate) Registration Fees = $25 (standard fee for private sales)

Worked Example

Let's say you're selling a car for $15,000 in Arizona:

  1. Sale Price: $15,000
  2. Arizona Sales Tax: $15,000 × 5.6% = $840
  3. Registration Fee: $25
  4. Additional Fees: $0 (assuming none)

Net Proceeds = $15,000 - $840 - $25 = $14,135

You would receive approximately $14,135 after all deductions.
