If a vendor miscalculate state sales tax and charged 9.3% instead of the actual 9.25%. Can I still deduct up to the 9.25%?

The two receipts in question are for building materials as part of a major home renovation.

Yes, you can use what you actually paid to determine the actual cost basis of your renovation.  Add this total home renovation to the original cost basis of your home.
