The term "sale" or "sales" includes installment and credit sales and the exchange of property as well as the sale thereof for money, every closed transaction constituting a sale. Each transaction whereby property is transferred from one owner to another constitutes a sale under the sales tax law except in instances where the property is transferred as a gift or where possession without ownership is given on a rental or lease basis with no intention to transfer ownership at the end of the rent or lease period. § 40-23-1(5).
