(1)   Sales to Dealers at Wholesale. Sales of tangible personal property are sales at wholesale, not subject to tax, when made to a licensed dealer to be put into the stock of goods offered for sale by the dealer, not withstanding the fact that the dealer may occasionally or habitually withdraw from stock some part of the inventory for use or consumption in connection with the business or for the personal use or consumption of the dealer. Such withdrawals shall be reported on the licensed dealer's sales tax return and the sales tax thereon computed and remitted to the Department of Revenue. The sales tax on withdrawals shall be computed on the cost to the dealer of the property withdrawn. See Rule 810-6-1-.196 Withdrawals from Inventory.
