To determine Angie's Bake Shop's net GST remittance, we need to calculate the GST paid on purchases and collected on sales for each month, and then find the net amount.

### Step-by-Step Calculation:
1. **GST on Sales**: This is the amount of GST collected from customers. It is calculated as:
   \[
   \text{GST on Sales} = \text{Sales} \times 0.05
   \]

2. **GST on Purchases**: This is the amount of GST paid by the store for their purchases. It is calculated as:
   \[
   \text{GST on Purchases} = \text{Purchases} \times 0.05
   \]

3. **Net GST Remittance**: This is the difference between the GST collected on sales and the GST paid on purchases. If the result is positive, it means they owe money to the government. If negative, they are entitled to a refund. It is calculated as:
   \[
   \text{Net GST Remittance} = \text{GST on Sales} - \text{GST on Purchases}
   \]

Let's perform these calculations for each month.Here's a detailed breakdown of Angie's Bake Shop's GST calculations for each month:
