Wisconsin Court Rules Indirect Materials Sold to Federal Government Exempt from Sales Tax

  • A Wisconsin circuit court affirmed a tax appeals commission decision.
  • Indirect materials purchased to fulfill a taxpayer’s contracts with the federal government were exempt from sales tax.
  • The materials were exempt because they were resold to the federal government.
  • The issue was whether the transfer of title under the contracts constituted a “sale” under Wisconsin law.
  • The court concluded that a “sale” included the transfer of title to tangible personal property.
