    Answer and Explanation:

    The journal entry for the recording of sales and sales tax payable is shown below:

    Accounts Receivable $3,472

    To Sales $3,200

    To Sales tax payable $192 ($3,200 * 6%)

    To Local tax payable $80 ($3,200 * 2.5%)

    (Being the sales and sales tax payable is recorded)

    For recording this we debited the account receivable as it increased the asset and credited the sales, sales tax and local tax as it increased the revenue and liabilities
