Tax on Attributes?


Recommended Posts

I haven't been able to find the answer to this...

I have a number of products that need to be priced by size. I set the "Pre-tax retail price: $0" and set each size attribute to set/increase the price accordingly. I have state tax only.

However, I get no taxes this way.

I know my tax settings are correct because it does work if I set the product "Pre-tax retail price" to a value. But even then, the tax is based solely on the default price and does not take into account the attribute increase.

Am I missing some other setting? Any help is greatly appreciated.

The sales tax is working on attributes, you just don't see it working because it's different than you expect it to be. When you enter a price for a product combination, you're entering the price including tax. So you won't see an increase in the total due to taxes for those products as it already is included. For the invoice, it then calculates the tax by subtracting the sales tax from the product price.

Personally, I think this makes things difficult, so I've changed things for me to make it so that attributes/product combination prices are pretax just like everything else. It's an easy change to two lines of code in Product.php. I've got to run, but I'll detail the changes in a follow up post later today or tomorrow.
