The hidden costs of indirect taxes
Indirect taxes – also known as consumption, commodity, sales‑and‑use or transaction‑based taxes – are complex, often nearly invisible charges which can create exposure if overlooked.
Technically, these taxes are referred to as the Goods and Services Tax/Harmonized Sales Tax (GST/HST), Quebec Sales Tax (QST) and Provincial Sales Tax (PST). Ignoring or dismissing potential exposures as inconsequential can exact a heavy toll on your company’s overall operations, cash flow and ultimately, profitability.
