I was charged over 11% sales tax on a papa johns pizza in fayetteville, ar?

The pizza was 7.99 after a coupon and i was charged .90 tax. The store manager told me that he had no idea and gave me the district managers number. I haven't called yet because I want to know the law on this.I was charged over 11% sales tax on a papa johns pizza in fayetteville, ar?
You were charged tax on the regular price not the price reduced by the coupon.
IDK about Arkansas, but in Washington state the law is that if you have a store coupon, it is subtracted first, and then tax is computed, but if you are using a manufacturer coupon, then tax is computed on full price and the coupon is treated like cash money {which is technically is}. Google your state tax codes starting at "sales tax + coupons."I was charged over 11% sales tax on a papa johns pizza in fayetteville, ar?

9.25% seems to be the rate there.
In most situations, the tax is required to be calculated on the full price BEFORE the coupon is applied. That's most likely why it seemed high.I was charged over 11% sales tax on a papa johns pizza in fayetteville, ar?
The tax was charged on the regular price which is law. Then the coupon deducted. Tax does not change.
