<p>[QUOTE=&quot;satootoko, post: 192961, member: 669&quot;]flaminio - go back and read my last post, and your exact question that I was responding to.&nbsp; That exchange had absolutely nothing to do with the economic <u>effects</u>, or wisdom, of nickel rounding vs. cent rounding, but only with the manner in which the presence of sales tax <u>affects</u> rounding.</p><p><br /></p><p>BTW your spreadsheet analysis can make just as good an argument for rounding to the nearest dollar as to the nearest nickel.&nbsp; That is already done on your income tax forms.&nbsp; A couple of years ago I had an unusually large number of transactions to report, and just for kicks I refigured my 1040 with exact dollars and cents.&nbsp; On that basis my taxes would have been increased by 1¢ - on a tax bill that was higher than my total earnings in my best year before I turned 50!</p><p><br /></p><p>In fact, if enough transactions are considered, rounding to the nearest $100 would also eventually come out the same way.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
