Sales Tax (SA), County Tax (eN) and City Tax (CT)
The Authority to collect taxes is designated to the Missouri Department of Revenue
by the legislature of the State of Missouri and most tax laws applied to these taxes
are found in Chapters 71 and 92, RSMo:
"The Missouri Department of Revenue serves as the central collection agency for a/l
state revenues. The department's primary duties include collecting taxes, titling and
registering motor vehicles, and issuing driver licenses, "

The following excerpt is obtained directly from the website of the State of Missouri
Department of Revenues (http://www.dor.mo.gov/taxlbusiness/sales/#stris)
REVENUE
"Sales tax is imposed on retail sales of tangible personal property and cerlain
seNices. All sales of tangible personal property and taxable seNices are generally
presumed taxable unless specifically exempted by law. Persons making retail sales
collect the sales tax from the purchaser and remit the tax to the Department of
Revenue. The state sales tax rate is 4.225%. Cities, counties and certain
districts may also impose local sales taxes as well, so the amount of tax
sellers collect from the purchaser depends on the combined state and local
rate at the location of the seller. The state and local sales taxes are remitted
together to the Department of Revenue. Once the seller remits sales tax to the
department, the department then distributes the local sales taxes remitted by the
sellers to the cities, counties and districts. "
•
Additionally, Missouri Revised Statutes, Chapter 34, State Purchasing and Printing,
Section 34.040,6 states:
"The commissioner of administration and other agencies to which the state
purchasing law applies shall not contract for goods or services with a vendor if the

Federal Excise Tax:
The IRS is empowered by congress to collect The Federal Excise Tax. Their website
(http://www.irs.govfpublicationsfp510far02.html#dOe795) includes the following:
D Internal Revenue Service I RS.gov
DlHI1MfHl Of THE TREASURY
Communications Tax
A 3% tax is imposed on amounts paid for all the following communications services.
•
•
•
•
Local telephone service.
Toll telephone service.
Teletypewriter exchange service.
Local telephone service. This includes access to a local telephone system and the privilege
of telephonic quality communication with most people who are part of the system. Local
telephone service also includes any facility or services provided in connection with this
service. The tax applies to lease payments for certain customer premises equipment (CPE)
even though the lessor does not also provide access to a local telecommunications system .
Private communlcatJon service. Private communication service is not local telephone
service. Private communication service includes accessory-type services provided in
connection with a Centrex, PBX, or other similar system for dual use accessory equipment.
However, the charge for the service must be stated separately from the charge for the basic
system, and the accessory must function, in whole or in part, in connection with
intercommunication among the subscriber's stations.
Toll telephone service. This includes a telephonic quality communication for which a toll is
charged that varies with the distance and elapsed transmission time of each communication.
The toll must be paid within the United States. It also includes (a) a telephonic quality
communication for which a toll is charged that varies only with elapsed transmission time and
(b) a long distance service that entitles the subscriber to make unlimited calls (sometimes
limited as to the maximum number of hours) within a certain area for a periodic charge.
Teletypewriter exchange service. This includes access from a teletypewriter or other data
station to a teletypewriter exchange system and the priVilege of intercommunication by that
station with most persons having teletypewriter or other data stations in the same excnange
system.
Figuring the tax. The tax is based on the sum of all charges for local or toll telephone
service included in the bill. However, if the bill groups individual items for billing and tax
purposes, the tax is based on the sum of the individual items within that group. The tax on the
remaining items not included in any group is based on the charge for each item separately.
Do not include in the tax base state or local sales or use taxes that are separately stated on
the taxpayer's bill.
•
If the tax on toll telephone service is paid by inserting coins in coin-operated telephones,
figure the tax to the nearest multiple of 5 cents. When the tax is midway between 5-cent

multiples, the next higher multiple applies. Prepaid telephone cards, A prepaid telephone
card is any card or any other similar arrangement that allows its holder to get local or toll
telephone service and pay for those services in advance, The tax is imposed when the card
is transferred by a telecommunications carrier to any person who is not a telecommunications
carrier. The face amount of the card is the amOllnt paid for communications services. If the
face amount is not a dollar amount, see section 49.4251-4 of the regulations.

Dear Mr. Stobbart:
Thank you for the opportunity to clarify our response to RFP 82Z05070: Offender Telephone
Services.
Public Communications Services, Inc. (PCS) confirms the validity of its proposal for an additional
90 days from December 9, 2005. Our clarifications appear below: pes' reply is placed under each
item.
Once again, thank you for your time and consideration. If you have any questions or concerns,
please feel free to contact me either by phone at (800) 310-231-1000 ext. 3015 or email at
joe.pekarovic@teampcs.com.
Sincerely,
Joseph Pekarovic
Vice President of Inmate Sales
11859 Wilshire Blnl.. Suite 600· Los Angeles. CA 90025· (310) 231-1000· (800) 3Sfl-JOO()· I-'ax (310) 473·4714

Points for clarification:
3.3.l.a Please clarify if pes or the facility will do the work? Will the facility have permissions
to block or deny for the entire system, or just that site?
This specification involves the blocking of numbers from offender dialing. The PCS Site
Administrator will be responsible for maintaining the list of numbers to be blocked from inmate
calling and the list of numbers to be accessible to all inmates. In addition, the Site Administrator
can provide agency staff with the list of blocked numbers upon request.
While the Site Administrator is available to do the work, authorized agency staff will have
permissions to block or deny numbers for the entire system. The access level assigned to the
individual user will determine whether they are able to enter the entire OTS or just the OTS for a
single facility. MODOC will determine what access level to grant to each staff member.
3.3.1.i Will the system have the ability to deny calls if the offender does not record a name?
Yes. When an offender makes a call, he/she is obligated to use his/her PIN number. The PIN
automatically retrieves the offender's prerecorded name for use in the call announcement. Calling
privileges can be denied to offenders that do not record a name at PIN setup.
3.3.1.s Will the proposed system provide the capability of flagging"the call and not
terminating the call?
Yes. The PCS system can be set to flag the three-way call attempts and not terminate the call. It
may also be set to initiate a warning. Regardless of the setting, three way call detection events are
always flagged in the call detail record and can be viewed in a report designed specifically to track
three way call attempts.
3.3.2.e How will this be automated, and what time frame? What if MODOC wants to approve
the list? How are numbers deleted from the list?
This specification involves the providing of automated Allow Lists associated with each PIN. The
"self-learn" feature of the OTS provides for automated Allow Lists. This feature will be available
immediately upon OTS activation.
11859 Wilshire Blvd.. Suite 600· Los Angeles. CA 90025 • (310) 231-1000· OWO) 350-1000 • Fax (310) 473-4714
www.pcstelcol1l.com
Using the automated "self-learn" feature, offenders can add new numbers to their Allow Lists by
simply dialing the telephone number. The new numbers will be automatically added to the Allow
List until the maximum of numbers allowed is reached.
MODOC will have the opportunity to approve all numbers added to the Allow List before the
offender can call that number. New numbers will be flagged, and will not be made active and
available for offender calling until MODOC has approved them. This approval can be done either
electronically or with a form provided by the Site Administrator.
Offenders may remove numbers from their Allow List by accessing the OTS with their PIN and
following the voice prompts. One of the options provided is to delete numbers from the Allow List.
PCS will be pleased to work with MODOC to set up the automated Allow List feature in the way
that best suits the needs of the State.
3.4.2.c Interface to be developed. How and what time frame?
MODOC's canteen has been designed and is currently managed by Huber & Associates. PCS has
entered into a teaming agreement with Huber & Associates to create an interface between the
canteen system and the offender telephone system for the purposes of debit implementation. PCS
can guarantee that it will be in place and able to be utilized immediately upon cutover to the PCS
offender telephone system.
PCS has discussed with Huber & Associates the requirement of this seamless interiace. PCS and
Huber have carefully analyzed the existing offender banking and canteen processes and have
designed complementary and enhanced processes to accommodate debit calling. This will include
daily file transfers that download offender debit calling purchases into the offender's telephone
account for immediate use.
Please see the associated documents for the Offender Telephone Process, as discussed and

Dear Mr. Pekarovic:
The State of Missouri desires to clarify your proposal submitted in response to RFP B2205070. Please respond to the

entire system, or just that site?
3.3.1 i. Will the system have the ability to deny calls if the offender does not record a name?
3.3.1 s. Will the proposed system provide the capability of flagging the call and not terminating the call?
3.3.2 e. How will this be automated, and what timeframe? What if MODOC wants to approve the list? How are
numbers deleted from the list?
3.4.2 c. Interface to be developed. How and what time frame?
PCS is requested to confirm the validity of its proposal for an additional 90 days from the date of this letter.
