I appreciate your answer. I've received a letter from TX stating the current rate is 0.03%. Currently the rate reads 6.31%. When I enter the rate of 0.03%I get a message from Quickbooks saying "are you sure? that rate is much lower than most."
So I thought perhaps I was supposed to add the 0.03% to the existing rate. When I added the two rates to equal 6.34% I get a message from Quickbooks saying "are you sure? That rate is much higher than most."
So....which rate is right?
Thanks!
