PARIENTE, Judge.
We affirm appellant's conviction for armed sexual battery, but vacate his sentence because of an error in the sentencing guidelines scoresheet. Because the trial court imposed a sentence which included a three-year mandatory minimum as required by section 775.087 (2), Florida Statutes (1993), it was error for the guidelines scoresheet to include an additional eighteen points for possession of a firearm. See § 921.0014, Fla. Stat. (1993); Dacosta v. State, 672 So.2d 861 (Fla. 3d DCA 1996); Shepherd v. State, 661 So.2d 426 (Fla. 3d DCA 1995).
This error results in a difference in the permissive sentencing range. Although appellant's twelve-year sentence falls within the permissive range of a properly calculated scoresheet, we are unable to conclude that appellant's sentence would have been the same had the trial court utilized a correctly calculated scoresheet. See Diaz v. State, 667 So.2d 991 (Fla. 3d DCA 1996); Jaramillo v. State, 646 So.2d 840, 842 (Fla. 2d DCA 1994); Sellers v. State, 578 So.2d 339, 340 (Fla. 1st DCA), approved, 586 So.2d 340 (Fla. 1991); cf. Huggins v. State, 537 So.2d 207 (Fla. 4th DCA 1989).
Accordingly, this cause is remanded for resentencing based upon a properly calculated scoresheet.
STONE and KLEIN, JJ., concur.
