Rounding
A rounding guideline that has been adopted in other countries, and that
will be adopted by the federal government for cash transactions with
the Canadian public, is:
The calculation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) or Harmonized
Sales Tax (HST) on purchases, whether for cash or non-cash
transactions, will continue to be calculated to the penny and added to
the price. It is only the total cash payment for the transaction that will
be rounded.
