Understanding Taxation: Factors Affecting Tax Calculation Explained

In summary, taxation serves as a means to finance government operations and services by collecting taxes from individuals and businesses. The factors that influence tax calculation include income, deductions, exemptions, filing status, and tax credits, which can vary depending on an individual's or business's financial situation. Income is typically taxed based on tax brackets, with higher income levels subject to higher tax rates. Deductions and exemptions can lower the amount of taxes owed by reducing taxable income. Tax credits provide a dollar-for-dollar reduction in taxes owed and can be based on factors such as income, education, or energy-efficient purchases. They can significantly decrease the amount of taxes owed and may even result in a tax refund.

Can't seem to recall -- How is the tax based? On where the product is sold, or where the person resides, or where they have it delivered? Please help.
 
It's taxed by where it's delivered.
