A tax is hereby imposed on each organization conducting the game of bingo which awards to winners of bingo games prizes or merchandise having an aggregate retail value of more than five thousand dollars annually and more than one hundred dollars in any single day. The tax shall be in the amount of two-tenths of one cent upon each bingo card and progressive bingo game card sold in Missouri to be paid by the supplier.
The taxes, less two percent of the total amount paid which may be retained by the supplier, shall be paid on a monthly basis to the commission, by each supplier of bingo supplies and shall be due on the last day of the month following the month in which the bingo card was sold, with the date of sale being the date on the invoice evidencing the sale, along with such reports as may be required by the commission. The taxes shall be deposited in the state treasury, credited to the bingo proceeds for education fund.
