Why It's the Right Pick
This isn't a generic arithmetic calculator — the dedicated COST/SELL/MARGIN and TAX+/TAX- keys mean you're not doing GST or margin sums by hand or in a separate app. It's a genuine Canon TX-220TS, well suited to a retail counter, trade counter or any desk where repeatable business maths matters more than scientific functions you'll never use. Note: it's a standalone calculator, not a POS terminal — it doesn't connect to your till system.
