    At 1 December 2012, Laurel owed sales tax to the state of $23,778.
    During the month of December she had the following transactions:
    -sales of $800,000 exclusive of 17.5 % sales tax
    -purchase of $590,790 inclusive of 17.5% sales tax.

    During December she has paid no tax to the state.
    How much did Laurel owe to the state for sales tax at the end of December?
    Can I see the method of calculation please?
