Harmonized Sales Tax
A Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) of 13% came into effect in the Province of Ontario on July 1, 2010. The HST is a combination of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) of 5% and the provincial component of 8%.
The Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a tax that applies to the supply of most property and services in Canada. The province of Ontario has elected to harmonize the provincial and Goods and Services taxes. Generally, HST applies to the same base of property and services as the GST.

When Purchasing
HST on Purchases: Operating Fund, Research Fund, Capital Fund & Special Fund
-
The suppliers of Goods and Services to the University will charge HST on their invoices to the University. 澳门六合彩开奖预测 is entitled to rebates on both the federal component (GST) and provincial components of the tax.
Financial Services posts all taxable expenses to the appropriate account net of tax rebates; for this reason, the total amount invoiced will not necessarily match the amount in your account. To calculate the expected amount for a purchase you can take the purchase amount before taxes and calculate the taxes and the rebates as in the following example or you can take the purchase amount before taxes and multiply by 3.41% to get the amount charged to your account.
Example:
Purchase Amount Before Taxes (A) $100.00 HST (13% - Ontario) Federal Component (5%) $ 5.00 Provincial Component (8%) $ 8.00 Total HST Amount (B) $ 13.00 Total Invoice Amount (A) + (B) = (C) $113.00 University Rebate Federal Rebate (67%) $(3.35) Provincial Rebate (78%) $(6.24) Total Rebate (D) $( 9.59) Cost to Department (C) - (D) $103.41
*GST of 5% x (1-0.67)= 1.65%Prov of 8% x (1-0.78)= 1.76%
Net Tax for 澳门六合彩开奖预测 = 3.41%
