The retailer then is reimbursed by the manufacturer or other third party. In this situation, the retailer's taxable sales price includes the amount the retailer receives from the customer. The retailer's taxable sales price also includes the amount the retailer receives from the manufacturer, less any coupon handling fees paid by the manufacturer to the retailer, if the conditions in par. (a) 1. to 4. are met.
Tax 11.28(3)(c) (c) Coupons issued and redeemable by retailers.
