Do not give the half point the district's name. Aurora Mun Dev Dist is already 0.5% on its own.
Aurora city tax is 1%. Aurora Mun Dev Dist is 0.5%. State tax is 6.25%. Named pieces are 7.75%. The combined rate is 8.25%. The extra 0.5% is not a second copy of the development district. It is unlabeled in the city, transit, and special-district columns.
Aurora is in Wise County. Wise CAD gets the April 15 business personal property rendition. Combined sales tax is 8.25%. City tax is 1%. No transit line is listed. Aurora Mun Dev Dist is listed at 0.5%. State sales tax is 6.25%. State plus city plus that district equals 7.75%. The combined rate is 8.25%, so another 0.5% sits outside the city, transit, and special-district columns of this file. Do not title that half point Aurora Mun Dev Dist. That name is already used at 0.5%. The franchise (margin) tax report is due May 15. A no-tax-due threshold exists. Read the dollar cutoff from the Comptroller, not from memory. Texas has no personal income tax. Sales tax is filed monthly, quarterly, or yearly by volume on the permit. Equipment, seasonal work, and a rate line with an unnamed piece fit the landscaping cleanup site. The fit is the mower and the invoice, not a census. Other trades are on the industries page.
A quarterly worksheet is where Aurora's two half points get fused. Only one of them is named. Aurora Mun Dev Dist is 0.5%. City tax is 1%. State tax is 6.25%. Those named pieces are 7.75%. The combined rate is 8.25%. A worksheet line called district at 1% has doubled the development district and has titled the other half point, which this file does not title. Book the named district at half a point. Leave the other half point blank until the city-rate detail gives it a label. A season contract collected in one month is a different problem sitting on the same worksheet. The check arrived. The mowing has not all happened. Calling the entire contract this quarter's sales makes the billing quarter look rich and the later quarters look empty. If part of the contract is taxable, the tax follows that part, not the deposit date. The district rate does not decide how much work is still owed. The contract does not tell you to double Aurora Mun Dev Dist. A sprayer can be on the rendition while the district stays on the return. Revenue is work already performed, not the whole contract check and not the tax inside it. A filer who only exports the bank will hand that report unearned work plus tax. Export the latest quarterly worksheet and two contracts, one still open and one finished. Mark every place Aurora Mun Dev Dist was entered at 0.5%, and mark any place it was entered at 1%. Split contract cash still owed as future work from work already done. Return the marked worksheet before the quarter is filed. Keep the rendition list off that page so April does not turn into a sales-tax fight. A photo of the spreadsheet is enough. If a contract is silent on tax, do not guess that silence means the district was included. Ask which lines were taxable before you multiply the whole contract by the combined rate. A phone photo of the quarterly worksheet is a complete start. Photograph the worksheet before you retype it.
