請問有冇核數師/會計師/律師等專業人士, 可以話我知呢張出自某快餐店嘅單, 究竟有冇計錯數, 因而額外多收每位顧客5仙?? 問題就係源自6%政府稅, 究竟0.621仙可以唔可以進位成0.63?? 如果每位顧客都多收5仙, 咁佢一日之內咪賺多咗至少幾百蚊, 長遠嚟計, 豈不是發過豬頭炳?? 專業意見唔該, 法律上可有錯??

is there any accountant/auditor/lawyer etc professionals that can enlighten me, whether this receipt from a fast food chain has done the correct maths, and charged 5-sen extra to every customer?? the problem emanate from the 6% government tax, can 62.1-sen be rounded up to 63-sen?? if they overcharge every customer by 5-sen, then i supposed they earn at least few hundred extra everyday.. accumulating all those extras, that is a huge fortune!! professional opinions please, are they legally wrong??

唔知大家點睇, 不過我就覺得年紀越大, 對生日蛋糕嘅要求就越簡單.. 當然我生日未有耐(趁機宣傳6月17日先係, 哈哈!!).. 最近就係好少可成個蛋糕咁嚟買, 而係簡簡單單買件好精緻嘅蛋糕仔, 取其一個意思.. 之不過細件還細件, 大家攞起支叉一齊叉嚟食, 細細啖分享反而比起自己食一大舊蛋糕來得快樂.. :)

i don't know what you think, but i realize as we grow older, our expectation on birthday cakes get simpler.. of course it's still way before my birthday (take this opportunity to tell everyone it's 17th June, haha!!).. just that recently instead of getting a whole cake, i like to buy little pieces of cake, for just a symbol.. though small but i think when everyone gather around it and fork a little bit by bit out of that little piece of cake, the sharing makes things felt even merrier than enjoying a slice of the big cake alone.. :)
