Navigating Sales Tax Challenges Facing Federal Government Contractors

After this session, participants will be able to: 

• Determine when contractors are acting as an agent in making purchases for the federal government.
• Create a general framework for determining when products and services can be purchased for resale exempt from sales tax, particularly when their contract involves the provision of both products and services.
• Recognize when contractors need to factor in sales tax on their sales and purchases to their federal government contract bids.
