sales tax column

Ppororo10y ago
On 1April Kimberley had the following transactions: (a) A cash sale of $8832 (b) A cash receipt of $6624 in relation to a credit sale in the previous month. Both transactions were inclusive of sales tax at 15?. What amount would be recorded in the sales tax column of the cash book on 1 April?

Cash sale: sales tax content = 8832 x 15/115 = 1152 The receipt of cash form the credit sale would have no sales tax content. This is simply a customer paying for an earlier purchase. The sales tax would have been recorded when the sale was originally made.
