taXcel:  stay-on-top Sales Tax Calculator
------------------------------------------

for Windows(R) 3.1 (or greater)


v1.0



a product of RCCO Research



taXcel:  stay-on-top Sales Tax Calculator for Windows (v3.1 or later)
provides quick and accurate calculations of sales tax on currency amounts, 
along with an indication of grand totals.  It remains on-screen in front 
of ("stay-on-top") other applications and windows for ready access.  The 
small calculation window that is visible can be moved or minimized.  Its 
moveable on-screen position is recalled from session to session to appear 
in the same place it was last utilized.  After an initial entry of the 
sales tax rate, taXcel defaults to the last-used rate for each session 
until changed again by the user.

Users of other sales tax calculation methods on personal computers are
often aware that some calculations, including those made with spread-
sheet applications or business forms programs, provide incorrect rounding 
methods which can result in small but inaccurate results.  For example, 
improper rounding of a 10% sales tax rate on $14.95 in many such 
calculations will yield a result of $1.49 as the tax amount with a final 
total of $16.44.  Managers of common retail usage, as well as tax charts, 
will acknowledge that the proper tax should be $1.50 (by rounding upwards) 
with a final total of $16.45.  taXcel will always attempt to provide 
upwards-rounding amounts and final totals so that the indicated tax 
collectable adequately covers the transaction.

The full registration fee is only $9.95.  The registered version activates 
the stay-on-top capability, the calendar feature, and system information 
provision; it also recalls from session to session the last taXcel screen 
position and the last-utilized tax rate.
