AI Summary

This bill directs the Alcohol Beverages Control Commission (ABCC) to amend regulations under Massachusetts General Laws chapter 138 to allow retailers to calculate the cost of alcohol based on the total net cost to the retailer after all discounts are applied, rather than using a different method. This change would provide retailers with more flexibility in how they determine the cost of alcohol products for the purposes of pricing and regulation.
