323.085
Presumptions regarding distribution and prepayment of tax. (1) Unless the contrary is
established, it shall be presumed that all cigarettes acquired by a distributor
are untaxed cigarettes, and that all cigarettes manufactured in this state or
transported to this state, and no longer in the possession of the distributor,
have been distributed.
(2) All taxes
paid pursuant to the provisions of ORS 323.005 to 323.482 are intended to be
direct taxes on the retail consumer for which required prepayment, through the
purchase and affixation of tax stamps, is only to achieve convenience and
facility in the collection and administration of the tax. When the tax is paid
by any person other than the retail consumer, the payment shall be considered
an advance payment to be added to the price of the cigarette and recovered from
the retail consumer. Except for a person selling cigarettes through a vending
machine or machines, any person selling cigarettes at retail shall state or
separately display in the retail premises a notice of the amount of the tax
included in the selling price and charged or payable pursuant to ORS 323.005 to
323.482. The provisions of this subsection do not affect the method of
prepayment of the tax as provided by ORS 323.005 to 323.482. [1965 c.525 §§28,31;
