Toshiba MA-215-10 SERIES - Manual (Page 43)

TAX TABLE PROGRAMMING
The MA-215 model can calculate tax using one of three methods of tax
calculation, which can be set in the programmable memory. The three
methods are:
1. FULL-BREAK METHOD (COMBINATION OF NON-CYCLIC BREAKS AND CYCLIC BREAKS)
(Maximum 64 breaks programmable for Tax 1 and Tax 2 tables altogether)
2. COMBINATION OF NON-CYCLIC BREAKS AND % RATE
(Maximum 64 breaks programmable for Tax 1 and Tax 2 tables altogether)
3. % RATE ONLY
CONDITION: After Auto Reset
OPERATION: Mode Lock: SET
Select one of the following three methods to meet your tax status. Use
[TXl/M] for Tax 1 Table and [TX2/M] for Tax 2 Table respectively in a
dual-tax area, in place of [TX/M] in the following descriptions for the
single tax table setting operations.
1. FULL-BREAK METHOD
Non-cyclic Breaks
1) Enter the firrft break point of price that is the non-taxable limit,
and depress [TX/M].
2) Enter the next break point of price that is the limit to collect
the tax amount Iç, and depress [TX/M].
3) Repeat Step 2) above, with alternating each limit price for
collecting tax amount of 2c, 3Cj 4c ••• until the non-cyclic breaks
are all entered.
4) Depress [ST] to end the non-cyclic break entries.
Cyclic Breaks
1) Do the same operation as in Step 1) above, entering each limit
price for each tax amount that increases by Iç, followed by the
[TX/M] key. Enter the last price so that the difference between
the last non-cyclic break price already entered and the last cyclic
one will be a multiple of one dollar ($9.00 maximum). Otherwise,
the tax calculation will not function.
2) Depress [AT/TL] to end the cyclic break entries as well as the
entire tax program.
2. COMBINATION OF NON-CYCLIC BREAKS AND % RATE
Non-cyclic Breaks
1) Do the same operation stated above in 1 from Steps 1) through 4) of
Non-cyclic Breaks.
% Rate
1) Enter the tax percentage rate applied to amounts above the
non-cyclic breaks. (The rate may be entered in 0.00 to 99.9999.
For example, to set 4%, enter 4).
