That’s when we’ll vote in a referendum about whether the BC government keeps or gets rid of the Harmonized Sales Tax (HST).

Until July 1 last year, the 5% Goods and Services Tax (GST) and the 7% Provincial Sales Tax (PST) were administered as two separate sales taxes. But after July 1, both the PST and GST were blended into one 12% HST.

To make sure we’re as informed as possible, the government commissioned a report from an independent panel which was created in January 2011 to gather information about the effects of the HST on families and on business. Since January, the panel has:

• reviewed and analyzed the positives and negatives of the new HST system compared to the previous PST/GST system;

• commissioned an independent economic study; and

• reviewed and considered data from 90 submissions.

The panel’s just-released report, HST or PST/GST? It’s Your Decision, compares and summarizes the costs and benefits of the HST and the PST/GST.

Report findings

The panel makes clear that sales taxes are essential to the BC government’s tax base. Whether British Columbians vote to keep the HST or to return to the PST/GST tax system, there will still be a sales tax in BC after the referendum. Here is a summary of findings from the report:

HST benefits for families

• In BC, 15% of families have an annual income of less than $10,000 and will receive HST rebate cheques in the mail. The $216 in sales tax these families paid under the PST/GST system has decreased by $73 a year to $143.

• If British Columbians stay with the HST until 2020, 24,400 new jobs would potentially be created because of cost-savings to corporations which will have more money to make investments.

HST costs for families

• The average family in BC will pay about $350 more annually. Families with incomes of $100,000+ will pay about $1,029 more annually.

• At the cash register close to one in five items (17%) will cost 7% more because of the HST.

• Families buying a new home priced at $525,000+ pay the 12% HST (with a $26,500 rebate), compared to the 5% GST (the rebate depends on the home price), under the previous system.

• A family buying a newly built home worth $685,000 will pay $8,000 more sales tax than under the PST/GST.

• HST is now charged on structural home renovations and repairs, and on fees for services including those of appraisers, home inspectors, REALTORS® and surveyors.

• The report estimates that families will pay $1.33 billion more annually in sales tax after HST rebates.

• Even with tax breaks and rebates, the report admits that the HST is not revenue neutral as previously promised by the government.

HST benefits for business

• Under the PST/GST system businesses paid the 7% PST for power, heat, rent, computers and other purchases necessary to run the business. While it wasn’t on the bill, it was added onto the final price paid at the cash register. Under the HST most businesses receive a full rebate on sales tax and no longer add the invisible PST to the final cashier price. Businesses can choose to pass on their HST rebates in the form of lower prices or use their savings to invest in their business, generating economic growth.

• Businesses pay $730 million less in taxes per year.

• Small and large businesses save at least $150 million in administrative costs per year because they comply with one tax not two.

• Economic analysis finds the HST increases economic growth, productivity, wages and the quality of jobs.

HST costs for business

• Rental apartment owners, doctors, financial institutions and insurers are hurt by the HST because they have to pay it on items they buy to provide services, but they don’t qualify for HST rebates.

• Builders of new homes have seen a negative impact on sales under the HST.

HST benefits for the economy

The economy is expected to get a bigger boost under the HST than it would under the PST/GST. Under the HST, by 2020, estimates indicate the size of the economy will grow by:

• 1.1 per cent;

• $2.5 billion; and

• 24,400 more jobs.

Returning to the old PST/GST system

The immediate benefit would be, on average, another $350 in families’ pockets each year. But, BC would have to pay back the federal government’s $1.6 billion in transition funding.
