Answer:

Sales taxes and flat taxes are similar in that both of them charge the same tax rate for everyone. A sales tax is levied when you purchase a retail good and it is a fixed percentage of the price of the goods bought. An example of a flat tax is the payroll tax which is 12.4% regardless on the salary paid.
