Collector's Rulings On Soft Drink Tax For Vendors
The commissioner of Internal Revenue issued a tentative ruling on May 1 1919 outlining the tax on soft drinks ice cream and similar items sold at soda fountains and similar venues. The 1 cent tax applies to the price for each 10 cents or fraction thereof and covers purchases by vendors buyers and retailers. The ruling defines vendor places of business and explains when sales are taxable including multi item transactions and disallowing pooling of orders to evade tax. It clarifies that sales at hotels cafeterias and similar establishments are not taxable if the items are integrated with meals rather than sold separately for consumption on the premises.
