I can only offer general guidelines since you did not provide more specific 
info. Take a look at the SalesTax directive for catalog.cfg. It is commonly 
set to a geographical indicator like state or postal code, but it could 
just as easy be set to the field in your userdb which indicates whether the 
customer is an individual or a company. A simple entry in salestax.asc 
takes care of the calculation, just follow the example of what is there now.
