Question

You have been asked to assist a retail company. It sells clothing and would like to have a Point of Sale computer installed to help with inventory control and to allow customers to check out faster. What peripheral will you recommend to them to help them keep track of inventory and check customers out faster?

Answer 1

A price scanner

Step-by-step explanation:

A price scanner would be the most efficient peripheral device to add to the computers at the till points. The device will improve the flow of customers and reduce the incidence of long queues in the event of the holiday period. In the system, the scanner will be placed before the till point. The customer will simply scam the price tag on the cloth or any item bought in the store. All items will be recorded on printer. The customer will then go and pay and pick up a slip/receipt and self-check out. This essentially reduces long queues.

Answer 2

Monitor, keyboard are the peripherals recommended for the retail company.

Step-by-step explanation:

A computer peripheral is an device which is of external nature that provides the input and output for the computer. For example, a keyboard and mouse are examples of input peripherals, while a monitor and printer are examples of output peripherals.

Input peripherals are those which help to put in the data and store in the computer while the external peripherals are the devices which are used to show the data on the screen that has stored in the computer. These are of great advantage to the people because it reduces the labor work and the hard work to a huge extent.
