See how much sales tax you have collected
The accounting method you use for your business determines how you calculate the amount of sales tax you pay to the government. If you report revenues using the cash method of accounting, you pay sales tax based on the goods and services for which you have collected payment. If you use the accrual method, you pay sales tax based on the goods and services for which you've billed.
