Ohio's state sales-tax base rate is 5.75 percent (local additions vary), and on most deals the tax rolls into the financed amount rather than coming out of pocket. The UCC-1 securing the equipment gets filed with the Ohio Secretary of State, and we handle that filing at funding. Ohio applies its own modifications to federal Section 179 treatment, so the state-side deduction can differ from the federal one, worth a conversation with your tax preparer. Full state-level detail lives on our Ohio guide.
