During the month of June, Whispering Boutique recorded cash sales of $302,810 and credit sales of $130,219, both of which include the 7% sales tax that must be remitted to the state by July 15. Prepare the adjusting entry that should be recorded to fairly present the June 30 financial statements.

Answer and Explanation:

The Journal entry is shown below:-

1. Sales revenue Dr, $28,656      ($121,700 + $287,673) × 7%

                To Sales tax payable $28,656

(Being sales tax payable is recorded)

Here we debited the sales revenue as it decreased the revenue while we credited the sales tax payable as  it increased the liabilities so that the proper posting could be done

Working note

Credit sales = $130,219 × 100 ÷ 107

= $121,700

Cash sales = $302,810 × 100 ÷ 107

= $287,673
