Contractors & Trades
Bookkeeping in Columbus.

Mississippi charges a high 7% state sales and use tax — one of the highest state rates in the country — and contractors owe use tax on materials when sales tax wasn't collected. Mississippi also levies a special 3.5% contractor's tax on larger commercial (non-residential) jobs. Unlike most states there's almost no local add-on, so the base rate is a flat 7% nearly everywhere. We keep your job costs and sales/use tax straight. On top of that, Mississippi's income tax is a flat 4% and legislated to fall toward full elimination, and we keep your records ready for it.
