When I was implementing penny-rounding for Canada in Point-of-Sale software, I was told we were legally required to round in a specific way.
I would imagine the U.S. probably will do something similar. Tho, we might follow the model of some of the other countries that have eliminated their pennies. Executive orders are a poor way to cover all the knock-on issues that some with eliminating the penny.
Businesses will round up in both cases
