A. Once Cent Different: Untick (Recommended)
Total Tax Amount = 20.00 + 24.62 + 0.73 + 7.39 +1.94 = 54.68
Items Amount Tax Tax Amount Total
Item 1 333.33 SR 20.00 353.33
Item 2 410.37 SR 24.62 434.99
Item 3 12.13 SR 0.73 12.86
Item 4 123.15 SR 7.39 130.54
Item 5 32.26 SR 1.94 34.20
Total 911.24 54.68 965.92


B. One Cent Different: Tick
Total Tax Amount based on itemized = 20.00 + 24.62 + 0.73 + 7.39 + 1.94 = 54.68
Total Tax Amount based on total amount = 911.24 x 6% = 54.67
Differences = 54.68 - 54.67 = 0.01
Therefore, the system will perform auto rounding mechanism to the largest value (ie. item 2 = 24.62-0.01 = 24.61).
