Florida Dealers Must Calculate Sales Tax on Actual Price Despite Penny Shortage and Cash Rounding

  • Dealers in Florida must continue to calculate sales tax based on the actual sales price, even after the end of penny production.
  • Rounding of cash transactions is allowed due to the penny shortage, but only for the total amount due, not the sales tax calculation.
  • Dealers can round the total amount due to the next lowest, highest, or nearest nickel, provided they notify customers.
  • The chosen rounding method must be clearly disclosed to customers through signage.
