- Total the exempt transactions from lines 4-10 and enter the sum on line 11. Then, subtract line 11 from line 3 to determine your taxable transactions on line 12.
- On line 13, multiply the taxable transactions by the applicable tax rate to calculate your total sales and use tax.
- If applicable, report any excess tax collected on line 14 and add this to the total tax calculated on line 13 to determine your total on line 15.
- If required, list any tax prepayments made on line 16 and subtract this from your total tax due on line 15 to find your remaining tax due on line 17.
- If you are filing late, calculate any penalties on line 18 and interest on line 19, and input these amounts.
- Sum lines 17, 18, and 19 to get the total amount due, which you will enter on line 20.
