Luxury Tax
A tax on a good or service that is not considered essential. Luxury taxes may be levied, for example, on sail boats or gold watches. Luxury taxes primarily impact wealthy persons, but are otherwise structured like a sales tax or a VAT. That is, a luxury tax is a percentage of the value (or the added value) of the good or service being sold.
