Use Tax Schedule (Schedule UT) to report the purchase or the credit for tax 
paid to the other state/municipality on the same purchase.  Example:  You 
purchase an item subject to tax in Ohio and pay 7% sales tax (6% state 
tax and 1% local tax).  You live in an area in West Virginia that imposes a 
1% municipal use tax with the State rate 6%, for a total 7%.  You would not 
report the purchase on the schedule nor on your Personal Income Tax return 
since the combined rates are the same in Ohio and the city in West Virginia. 
The following example includes a situation a person may encounter with 
respect to West Virginia state, and municipal sales and use taxes, if they 
purchase items outside West Virginia or from a di  erentffmunicipality and 
are required to pay sales or use taxes to the other state and/or municipality. 
The example provides information on how to use the amount of sales tax 
paid to the other state as a credit against West Virginia state and municipal 
use taxes imposed and how to compute and report the West Virginia state 
and municipal taxes due.
You bring equipment into West Virginia for use in a municipality which 
imposes municipal sales and use tax.  You can determine the West Virginia 
state and municipal use tax as follows:
