Final answer:

Using a calculator to determine the final price without applying a discount for an item advertised with a percentage off is False.

Step-by-step explanation:

False

It is not acceptable to use a calculator to determine the final price for an item and enter it into the register without a discount applied for any item advertised for a percentage off. Using a calculator to calculate the final price without applying the discount would result in an incorrect amount. The discounted price should be calculated by subtracting the percentage off from the original price. For example, if an item is advertised as 20% off and the original price is $100, the discounted price would be $80.
