Respuesta :

Answer:

Cash sales = $233,200 × (100 ÷ 106)

                  = $220,000

Credit sales = $153,700 × (100 ÷ 106)

                  = $145,000

Sales tax revenue = ($220,000 + $145,000) × 6%

                              = $21,900

Therefore, the Journal is as follows:

Sales tax revenue A/c Dr. $21,900

To sales tax payable                       $21,900
