Tax Programming - Samsung ER 5200 Operator's And Programming Manual

Tax Programming

The ER-5200/5240 has the capability to support four separate taxes.
Taxes can be calculated as either a straight percentage rate of between .001% and 99.999%, or a 60
break point tax table. Each tax may be either an add-on tax (added to the cost of a taxable item), or a
value added tax (VAT) that is included in the price of the item.
Tax rate 4 may be set to function as the Canadian Goods & Services Tax (GST). If Tax 4 is
designated as GST, table programming for the rate is not allowed.
Definitions for tax rates 1, 2, 3 & 4 are made as part of tax programming.



Important Note: After you have entered your tax program(s), test for accuracy by entering
several transactions of different dollar amounts. Carefully check to make sure the tax charged
by the cash register matches the tax on the printed tax chart for your area. As a merchant, you
are responsible for accurate tax collection. If the cash register is not calculating tax accurately,
contact your dealer for assistance.
