    (Being refundable deposit received)

    3. Accounts Receivables A/c Dr $894,520

    (Being credit sales is made including sales tax)

    The sale tax payable is computed below:

    = Credit sales * state sales tax rate + Credit sales * local sales tax rate

    = $836,000 * 5% + $836,000 * 2%

    = $41,800 + $16,720
