    The correct answer is B) $29,200

    Explanation:

    Px is total receipts for the month including sales taxes

    Px' is total receipts for the month not including sales taxes

    t=is tax rate

    Taxes is Px' * tax rate

    Px=Px' + taxes

    Px=Px' + Px' * tax rate

    Px=Px' * (1+tax rate)

    We need to know Px'

    So, Px'=Px / (1+tax rate)

    Replacing,

    Px'=30,660/1,05=$29,200
