README

Purpose of module

The Magento_Tax module provides the calculations needed to compute the consumption tax on goods and services.

The Magento_Tax module includes the following:

• configuration of the tax rates and rules to apply
• configuration of tax classes that apply to: ** taxation on products ** taxation on shipping charges ** taxation on gift options (example: gift wrapping)
• specification whether the consumption tax is "sales & use" (typically product prices are loaded without any tax) or "VAT" (typically product prices are loaded including tax)
• specification of whether the tax total line can be toggled to display the tax details/subtotals
• display of prices (presented with tax, without tax, or both with and without)

The Magento_Tax module also handles special cases when computing tax, such as:

• determining the tax on an individual item (for example, one that is being returned) when the original tax has been computed on the entire shopping cart ** example country: United States
• being able to handle 2 or more tax rates that are applied separately (examples include a "luxury tax" on exclusive items)
• being able to handle a subsequent tax rate that is applied after a previous one is applied (a "tax on tax" situation, which recently was a part of Canadian tax law)
