Amusements Tax Excludes Juke Boxes Under State Rule
The Attorney General in a public opinion says the state amusement tax does not apply to gross receipts from juke boxes and similar coin music devices in venues open to the public without admission. The ruling notes the tax applies to admission charges and use of facilities, but the juke box is not a substantial use of facilities. operators still owe income tax and a $10 annual license per device, with counties sometimes imposing higher charges not in Frederick County.
