Respuesta :

Answer:

B. $135 to Virginia

Explanation:

The computation of the Roxy tax liability is shown below:

Roxy tax liability = Purchase value of tax rate × Virginia's sales tax rate

= $2,700 × 5%

= $135

The tax is paid by the individual and not the company. So, so company owes only sales tax
