cash transactions; mandatory rounding method

SB 1108 requires businesses in Arizona to round cash transaction totals to the nearest five cents when one-cent coins are unavailable or not used at checkout. This applies only to the final total after taxes and fees, not to individual items or non-cash payments like credit cards. Businesses must post a visible notice about the rounding rule and cannot use any method other than rounding down for totals ending in 1-2 or 6-7 cents, and up for 3-4 or 8-9 cents. The Arizona Department of Agriculture enforces the rule through warnings, orders, and civil penalties. The law explicitly states it does not override federal coinage laws or require acceptance of specific currency denominations.
