The following may not be true in every jurisdiction but it is in the states where we operate: Another reason for charging sales tax but not showing it on the estimate, is that a contractor must legally must pay the amount in sales tax shown on the estimate to the state/governing body even if the cost of materials is less than anticipated. Of course if they use more, they still must pay on the extra also. But if sales tax is not shown on the estimate, then they only have to pay sales tax on the materials used/purchased for the job whether higher or lower than anticipated. This allows for a more accurate costs and not having to pay additional taxes.
