Scammers are contacting taxpayers while pretending to be from the Michigan Department of Treasury, using out‑of‑state phone numbers. They may request payments or attempt to trick you into providing your bank account information. Always verify the source before sharing any personal or financial details.
When filing my monthly/quarterly return, it is asking me for “gross sales”. Is this correct? Does this mean only taxable sales or all sales?
Gross sales are required to be reported on monthly/quarterly returns for tax years 2015 and beyond. Gross sales is defined as all sales. To obtain your taxable sales figure, subtract any allowable deductions from gross sales. Allowable deductions and calculation of tax due from taxable sales are not delineated on the monthly/quarterly return.
Refer to Form 5095, Sales, Use and Withholding Monthly/Quarterly and Amended Monthly/Quarterly Worksheet, for assistance in completing the monthly/quarterly return.
