tangible personal property; sale of property following its use in lease or
rental service. ( NRS
360.090 , 360B.110 , 372.385 ,

1.  The legal incidence of the sales tax on a
lease or rental of tangible personal property falls upon the person who leases
or rents the property from the retailer.
2.  A retailer engaged in the lease or rental
of tangible personal property shall collect and remit the sales tax measured
by:
(a) The gross lease or rental charges for the lease
or rental of that property; or
(b) The cost of that property to the retailer.
3.  A retailer engaged in the lease or rental
of tangible personal property who desires to pay the tax measured by the cost
of the property to the retailer must make that election not later than the date
upon which the first tax return is due following the purchase of that property
for lease or rental. If the retailer fails to make that election by that date,
the retailer shall be deemed to have elected to pay the tax measured by the
gross lease or rental charges for the lease or rental of the property. An
election pursuant to this subsection may not be changed after the date upon
which the first tax return is due following the purchase of the property for
lease or rental.
4.  A retailer who elects to pay the tax
measured by the gross lease or rental charges pursuant to this section is not
required to pay the sales tax for the purchase of parts or other equipment for
the tangible personal property which is committed to lease or rental use in
this State if the retailer gives a resale certificate to the vendor from whom
the retailer purchases the property.
5.  If the property is sold following its use
in lease or rental service to a purchaser who receives delivery of the property
within this State, the tax applies to the sales price of the property without
any deduction or credit for the tax paid on the original cost of the property
or the taxes paid on the gross lease or rental charges.
