How it's figured

Each sale
Sales price × the unit property tax factor: the prior year's aggregate rate at the location on January 1, ÷ 100 ÷ 12. Each sale's tax is rounded to the cent; no official rounding rule exists.
$0 sales
Fleet sales, sales to dealers and subsequent sales.
When
Form 50-246 by the 10th of the next month, even with no sales. Form 50-244 by February 1. A dealer not in business on January 1 files every month but pays no unit property tax that year.
Where
Form 50-246 to the county tax assessor-collector with the tax, a copy to the appraisal district. Form 50-244 to the chief appraiser, a copy to the county tax office.

General information, not tax advice; the county tax assessor-collector and appraisal district have the final word.
