Roxy operates a dress shop in arlington, virginia. lisa, a maryland resident, comes in for a measurement and purchases a $1,500 dress. lisa returns to virginia a few weeks later to pick up the dress and drive it back to her maryland residence, where she will use the dress.
assuming that virginia's sales tax rate is 5 percent and that maryland's sales tax rate is 6 percent, what is roxy's sales tax liability?

    Explanation:

    Data provided in the question:

    Cost of the dress purchased = $1,500

    Virginia's Sales tax rate = 5 percent

    Maryland's sales tax rate = 6 percent

    Now,

    Roxy's sales tax liability

    = Virginia's sales tax rate × Cost of the dress purchased

    or

    Roxy's sales tax liability = 5% × $1,500

    or

    Roxy's sales tax liability = $75
