Answer:

cash 10,000 debit

   sales tax tayable   975

   sales revenue    9.025

Explanation:

the sale was made on cash, so we use cash account.

then to calculate the sale tax tayable:

sales price x tax sale rate = sale tax payable

10,000 x 0.0975 = 975

finally the revenue will be the diference between the proceeds of the sale and the taxes.

revenue = price - tax = 10,000 - 975 = 9,025
