Excise and sales taxes are two different types of taxes. An excise tax is imposed on specific goods and is generally the responsibility of the merchant to pay to the government. The merchant, in turn, may or may not pass the tax on to the consumer by adding it into the price. A sales tax, on the other hand, is charged on almost everything and is collected from the consumer by the merchant who passes it on to the government. The sales tax is a percentage of the price of the good or service.
