Sample Governmental Services Taxation Calculation

Sample Governmental Services Taxation Adding

Taxes are based on the original Manufacturers Suggested Retail Toll (MSRP) set when the vehicle was new.
(NRS Chapter 371)

The MSRP will non change over time regardless of vehicle historic period or condition. The start calculation is the DMV Valuation of the vehicle, which is 35% of MSRP.
The DMV Valuation is so depreciated 5% after the beginning year and 10% per year thereafter until it reaches a minimum of 15%. The minimum Governmental Services Tax is $sixteen.00.
The Governmental Services Tax is iv cents on each $ane of the depreciated DMV Valuation.
The Supplemental Governmental Services Tax is 1 cent on each $one of the depreciated DMV Valuation.

Vehicle ii years former with an original MSRP of $xx,000
Amounts	Caption
$xx,000
ten .35	DMV Valuation - will non change over time (NRS 371.060)
$7,000
x .85	DMV Valuation is depreciated 15% - vehicle is 2 years quondam (NRS 371.050)
$v,950
x .04	Governmental Services revenue enhancement is four% of the depreciated valuation (NRS 371.040)
$238	Governmental Services Taxation is $238

The Supplemental Governmental Services Tax, if charged in the above case, would be $60 (later rounding) for total taxes of $298.

Commercial vehicles with a declared gross weight of ten,000 pounds or more and trailers with an unladen weight of 4,000 pounds or more use a different schedule. See NRS Affiliate 371.
