Set Number Format for Frame Tick Labels

How to override the defaults and set the y-axis Frame Tick Number Format to one decimal place, and x-axis Frame Tick Number Format to Scientific Form with two decimal places. The simple plot (notebook attached) is an example using the following: 

Plot[x 10^5, {x, 10^-5, 10^-4}]

Thank you.

Seems complicated, but It worked after replacing DecimalForm with NumberForm for my Mathematica 10.3. Thank you!

Hi Jack,

Take a look at the CustomTicks package.
POSTED BY: Rohit Namjoshi

Thank you Rohit. The CustomTicks package seems like it covers a great deal and would take a lot to learn and use. It is unfortunate that all the needed Options for Ticks are not included like other Options in Plots. I was hoping for a simpler and easier solution. Gorni's reply is more manageable, and perhaps can be made a little more general. Thanks again for the reference.
