    If I buy $106.00 worth of inventory and parts are $100 and sales tax is $106, would I credit Accounts Payable $106 and debit Inventory $106, or would I need to break out tax and only put $100 into inventory? If so, what account do I debot for the $6??

    Thanks!

    The correct entry will be:

    Dr. Inventory : 106
    Cr. Accounts Payable : 106
    Cr. Tax Payable : 6
