Aptitudeclasses is unable to provide You with tax advice and You should consult Your own tax advisor.
4. Rounding Off.
Aptitudeclasses may, in its sole discretion, round up or round down the Sale Price to the nearest whole functional base unit in which the Sale Currency is denominated (e.g. to the nearest dollar, euro or other supported currency); for example, Aptitudeclasses will round up an amount of 101.50 to 102.00, and 101.49 to 101.00.
Some currencies are denominated in large numbers. In those cases, Aptitudeclasses may determine the functional base unit in which those currencies are denominated to be 10, 100 or 1,000 of the currency; the corresponding examples for such currencies would be for Aptitudeclasses to round up an amount of 1,045 up to 1,050 and 1,044 down to 1,040, or 35,450 up to 35,500 and 35,449 down to 35,400, or 837,500 up to 838,000 and 837,499 down to 837,000.

When you are logged in to Your Account, the Sale Currency will be based on Your geographic location as set upon Account signup. You cannot change Your displayed currency.
Each foreign currency conversion is processed at a foreign currency conversion rate. This rate generally refers to the amount of one currency that must be paid to buy a certain amount of another currency at a given time. For example, if it costs US$125.00 to buy €100.00, the currency conversion rate of US dollars to Euros would be 1.25, and the currency conversion rate from Euros to US dollars would be 0.8. Currency conversion rates will vary from time to time.
