As we mentioned, our tool is really simple to use as you need to provide the following two variables.

• Purchase amount; and
• Purchase location ZIP Code.

For example, if the purchase price of the item bought in Palm Beach is $100, you need to enter 33480 as the ZIP Code with the $100 purchase price, and you will immediately see the result of $7.

For better understanding, our tool also shows you the sales tax breakdown. In the present case, the final amount of sales tax builds up in the following way:

• Florida state tax rate is 6%:
  $100 × 0.06 = $6.00

• Palm Beach County tax rate is 1%:
  $100 × 0.01 = $1.00

• Total sales tax rate for Palm Beach County, Florida, is 7%:
  $100 × 0.07 = $7.00
