North Carolina lawmakers are considering taxing a broad variety of everyday services. You could pay more for a haircut, a pedicure, a clutch replacement or getting your yard mowed. But the services of accountants, lawyers and other white-collar workers would be exempt.
A 4.5 percent state sales tax already applies to all goods and about 30 different types of services, including equipment rental and printing, among others. Both the House and the Senate have proposed expanding the tax to about 50 services including storage, entertainment, personal services, installations, repairs and maintenance.
