Methods and systems for processing jackpots, including providing jackpot-related forms such as tax forms to jackpot winners, suspending jackpot processing, integrating jackpot processing with other features such as loyalty and financial/wallet features and systems, managing jackpot payment pouches, and processing of player tips, such as from jackpot funds, are provided.

Aspects of the present disclosure provide systems, methods, apparatus, and computer-readable storage media that support local and cloud-based tax determination operations. In some examples, a transaction system may execute a local tax engine to enable localized tax calculation services in a lightweight footprint while still achieving one or more benefits of a cloud-based system (e.g., technical support and automatic updates of software and tax content). As a result, some aspects of the present disclosure may enable a “full power” tax engine that is local to a transactional system, such as an edge device, while also enabling the tax engine to automatically sync back to a cloud-based system, such as to receive one or more of a configuration update, a software release, a software update, or updated tax content. Further, the transaction system may transmit results of tax calculations to the cloud-based system, such as for reporting, compliance, or both.

A method and system for conducting an online payment transaction through a point of sale device. The method includes receiving input from a user selecting an item for purchase through the point of sale device; calculating a total purchase amount for the item in response to a request from the user to purchase the item; and sending payment authorization for the total purchase amount from the point of sale device to a payment entity, in which the payment authorization is sent to the payment entity via a mobile communication device of the user. The method further includes receiving a result of the payment authorization from the payment entity through the mobile communication device; and completing the payment transaction based on the result of the payment authorization.

Provided is a value-added tax calculation system using a multi-purpose tax invoice, whereby a double taxation effect and a redemption effect are removed from a value-added tax calculation method by using an all-stage tax credit method so that the value-added tax calculation system can be usefully used in a jewelry industry, etc.

Methods and systems are disclosed for determining valuation and risk analysis of municipal debt instruments on an after-tax basis. In one embodiment, bond terms, yield curve and interest rate volatility data are received for a set of bonds. Additionally, IRS treatment data and applicable tax rates for the set of bonds and a purchaser of the bonds are also received. Theoretical tax-neutral values of the bonds are calculated using a buy-and-hold methodology, wherein the tax-neutral value comprises the price of the at least one municipal debt offering such that its discounted after-tax value equals the price. A theoretical maximum after-tax values of the bonds are also calculated using a recursive valuation path-dependent methodology. Optimal bond management is determined using the calculated theoretical tax-neutral values and maximum after-tax values of the bonds.

A commodity registration device includes an input unit, a display unit, a receiving unit, and an output unit. Commodity data used to specify a transaction target commodity is input to the input unit. The display unit displays commodity details data including a tax rate of a tax imposed on the transaction target commodity specified by the commodity data input via the input unit. The receiving unit receives a tax rate change instruction for the tax imposed on the transaction target commodity for which the commodity details data is displayed on the display unit. The output unit outputs the commodity data used to specify the transaction target commodity for which the tax rate change instruction is received by the receiving unit.

A system is disclosed for managing waste services. The system may have a provider portal, a locating device configured to generate a location signal indicative of a location of a service vehicle, and a central processing unit in communication with the provider portal and the locating device. The central processing unit may be configured to determine a total amount of fuel consumed by the service vehicle and to determine, based at least in part on the location signal, a portion of the total amount of fuel consumed by the service vehicle when the service vehicle is not traveling on public roadways. The central processing unit may be further configured to cause an indication of the portion of the total amount of fuel to be displayed on the provider portal.
