How is Sales Tax computed when you buy a car?

Jeff asked:

When buying a car from a dealer, you must pay sales tax, of course. What I am curious is how they figure the amount of tax you must pay. Is it computed on just the price of the car, or the price of the car plus the Destination Charge?

I would think it is different by state, and I live in Georgia. Thank you.
