Summary Report of Taxes Paid
Posted: Thu Aug 07, 2008 8:37 am
Unrelated to the FO issue ...
Does anyone know if there is a way to generate a summary report of the taxes paid?
Our ward is not in one of the states that require the church to pay sales tax, but I still have been recording the tax amount for each of the checks written. I started just because I didn't know it wasn't required (and didn't know I could turn off that option), but I have since kept the option, because I wanted to get an idea of how much we were paying.
Our stake fin. clerk has recently been pushing for us to use the state sales tax exempt form for church purchases, but it has been very difficult to get members to use it. And not all businesses will accept it without additional hoops to jump through (even the local BSA office requires additional forms and letters from Bishops).
To help push our membership to use the form, I would like to know how much we spent, so I can report how much we could be saving.
