***Industry Update***

Floor Tax
The NYS Department of Tax and Finance has imposed a one time floor tax on beer and wine effective May 1, 2009.
The floor tax will be based on inventory as of May 1, 2009 and will be due to the NYS Department of Tax and Finance on or before July 20, 2009. Wholesalers, retailers, and other sellers of beer and wine must take inventory, file a floor tax return (MT-70), and pay the tax. If there is no inventory to report, you must still file a floor tax return indicating that no tax is due. If you own more than one location, you must file one form based on the inventory at each location. Below are two links to more information and for the required tax forms.
