SUBJECT: Cost Reduction in Utilities
During my May 6 discussion with consultant Herb Williams about our completed Harlin project, I discovered Brewer Power and Light Company had erroneously charged us sales tax each month for electricity. Rules 21521 and 12528 of the Texas Sales, Receipts, and Use Tax Regulations exempt from sales tax electricity and gas used predominately for manufacturing.
As a result, I have instructed Jim Hart to request a refund of $26,005.23 in sales-tax payments by our division for last year. In the future we expect to save approximately $2,000 per month as a result of this exemption.
