How to stop product item cost from being doubled in the checkout process?

Okay, please help!

I am was in the middle of Beta testing my site when I discovered that after In put an item in the basket, that the item price is double. The tax amount duplicates the item cost and the total becomes doubled in the checkout process. Shoot! I don't even know where to look to trouble something like this. I know it must be something with the tax rules and conditions, for the item quantity works fine. Any help would be great!

Preston.

Taxation without representation isn't fair.

Okay reviewing the fine print, when entering the percent rate and using old school math 1% must be entered as .01 in decimal form, and not 1.0. There is no convert to between the two in Commerce Kickstart 2. So the result of an entry of 1.0 on the rate means add 100% tax to the item being purchased.

Example:
Rate
[ .06 ]
The percentage used to calculate this tax expressed as a decimal, e.g. .06 for a rate of 6%.

Okay so, I found out that is was the tax rules setup. Under the Store Setting --> Taxes-->configure component (of the given tax in question) I have under conditions:

Order address component comparison
Parameter: Order: [commerce-line-item:order], Address: Address, Address component: Postal code, Value: 80455

and I deleted the Action on the "Actions," which removed the doubling of the price. Working to reset up the Action now.

Okay, I found out that the tax action is not calculating correctly.

Apply a tax rate to a line item

The data selector helps you drill down into the data available to Rules. To make entity fields appear in the data selector, you may have to use the condition 'entity has field' (or 'content is of type'). More useful tips about data selection is available in the online documentation.
Data types: Select data of the type Commerce Line item.
