Question:Alana is not registered for sales tax purposes. She has recently received an invoice for goods for resale which cost $500 before sales tax, which is levied at 15%. The total value was therefore $575.
What is the correct entry to be made in Alana's general ledger in respect of the invoice?
A. Dr Purchases $500, Dr Sales tax $75, Cr Payables $575
B. Dr Purchases $575, Cr Payables $575
C. Dr Purchases $500, Cr Payables $500
D. Dr Purchases $575, Cr Sales tax $75, Cr Payables $500
The correct answer is: Dr Purchases $575, Cr Payables $575.
Alana is not registered for sales tax purposes and therefore cannot reclaim the input sales tax of $75.
