40 Points - Are tax rates different than sales tax? I forgot and I'm doing my math homework. If anyone could help, that would be great!:)

Some local jurisdictions do not impose a sales tax. 7.250% Note that the true California state sales tax rate is 6%. There is a statewide county tax of 1.25% and therefore, the lowest rate anywhere in California is 7.25%. We have listed the combined state/county rate as the state rate to eliminate confusion.

Hope it helps have a great day :)
