extended warranty contracts
-
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - Martha Schiebelhuth thought she was making a good investment when she signed a service contract with a South Florida company last year for home and appliance repairs.
For $275, AtlasServices promised to repair future electrical and plumbing problems and maintain her home appliances or even replace them, if necessary. It was an offer the 70-year-old west of Boca Raton resident felt could save her hundreds or thousands of dollars on bills.

I just reviewed a news bulletin concerning changes in the taxation laws, one of which was the addition of a $1 fee for oil changes. Another change was the exemption of extended warranty companies from paying sales tax on parts for repairs done under their contracts. If I am understanding that change correctly, it means that a customer purchasing an extended warranty contract is now subject to a 5 percent sales tax on the sale at time of purchase, and any repairs that are made under a contract (as of Sept. 20) will not be taxed the 5 percent on parts.
So what the Legislature has done is added another tax to Maine citizens and removed any sales tax requirement from the warranty companies for any resulting repairs under their contracts.
