    This is how to solve:

    The formula for calculating the sales tax on a good or service is: selling price x sales tax rate and when calculating the total cost of a purchase, the formula is: total sale amount = selling price + sales tax.

    final sale price = $1.07p

    Step-by-step explanation:

    list price of item = $p

    sales tax rate = 7% = 0.07

    sales tax = 7% of $p

    = 7% x $p

    = 0.07 x $p

    = $0.07p

    final sale price = list price + sales tax

    = p + 0.07p

    = p (1 + 0.07)

    = 1.07p
