[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1098880, member: 15929"]Thank you JeffB. What Coleguy was presenting simply "sounded" incorrect. It may be correct when reporting inventory as is required by the State of California but certainly not on individual item sales. As far as I know, rounding is done UP for taxes anyway to address partial cents since tax MUST be collected. The purpose behind the rounding is for the "cash transaction" where "cent" coins would no longer be available to offer for payments of 1, 2, 3, or 4 cents. Cash transactions would be rounded, debit/credit card transactions would not. Continuing to produce the cent is simply an unnecessary extravagance enjoyed by those folks who cannot get out of their conspiracy theory boxes much less see outside of them. Continuing to produce the paper bill falls into the exact same category. A pointless, expensive exercise that is no longer needed.[/QUOTE]
