# ITaxCalculationStrategy
## Overview
A tax calculation strategy is used to calculate taxes when calculating a cart's totals. The Medusa
backend provides a tax calculation strategy that handles calculating the taxes, taking into account the
defined tax rates and settings such as whether tax-inclusive pricing is enabled.
You can override the tax calculation strategy to implement different calculation logic or to
integrate a third-party service that handles the tax calculation. You can override it either
in a Medusa backend setup or in a plugin.
A tax calculation strategy should be defined in a TypeScript or JavaScript file created under the `src/strategies` directory.
The class must also implement the `ITaxCalculationStrategy` interface imported from the `@medusajs/medusa` package.
For example, you can create the file `src/strategies/tax-calculation.ts` with the following content:
```ts title="src/strategies/tax-calculation.ts"
import {
ITaxCalculationStrategy,
LineItem,
LineItemTaxLine,
ShippingMethodTaxLine,
TaxCalculationContext,
} from "@medusajs/medusa"
class TaxCalculationStrategy
implements ITaxCalculationStrategy {
async calculate(
items: LineItem[],
taxLines: (ShippingMethodTaxLine | LineItemTaxLine)[],
calculationContext: TaxCalculationContext
): Promise<number> {
throw new Error("Method not implemented.")
}
}
export default TaxCalculationStrategy
```

## Methods
### calculate
This method calculates the tax amount for a given set of line items under applicable
tax conditions and calculation contexts.
This method is used whenever taxes are calculated. If automatic tax calculation is disabled in a region,
then it's only triggered when taxes are calculated manually as explained in
[this guide](https://docs.medusajs.com/modules/taxes/storefront/manual-calculation).
#### Example
An example of the general implementation of this method in the Medusa backend's tax calculation strategy:
```ts
async calculate(
items: LineItem[],
taxLines: (ShippingMethodTaxLine | LineItemTaxLine)[],
calculationContext: TaxCalculationContext
): Promise<number> {
const lineItemsTaxLines = taxLines.filter(
(tl) => "item_id" in tl
) as LineItemTaxLine[]
const shippingMethodsTaxLines = taxLines.filter(
(tl) => "shipping_method_id" in tl
) as ShippingMethodTaxLine[]
const lineItemsTax = this.calculateLineItemsTax(
items,
lineItemsTaxLines,
calculationContext
)
const shippingMethodsTax = this.calculateShippingMethodsTax(
calculationContext.shipping_methods,
shippingMethodsTaxLines
)
return Math.round(lineItemsTax + shippingMethodsTax)
}
```
