time of 7 a.m. and/or the last transaction was entered into the
cash register substantially earlier that NDV's normal closing
time of 10 p.m.
To illustrate, the first transaction recorded on the cash
register tape for January 4, 1987, a Sunday, was not entered
until 4:39 p.m., and the last transaction recorded on that tape
was entered at 9:18 p.m. Thus, according to the cash register
tape that Mr. Katerelos saved for January 4, 1987, the sales
transactions that NDV had on that day spanned only 4 hours and 39
minutes. However, 79 missing transactions totaling $808.63 were
entered into the cash register between 8:42 p.m. on January 3,
1987, when the Z or reset mode was activated, and 4:39 p.m. on
January 4, 1987, when the first transaction recorded on the cash
register tape that Mr. Katerelos saved for that day was entered
into the cash register.37 Those 79 missing transactions do not
appear on the cash register tapes that Mr. Katerelos saved for
either of those two days.
37 Because the last transaction recorded on the cash register
tape for Jan. 3, 1987, was entered into the cash register at 8:42
p.m., it is possible that some of the 79 missing transactions for
the two-day period Jan. 3-4, 1987, were entered into the cash
register after 8:42 p.m., prior to the close of business on Jan.
3, 1987, and some were entered into the cash register on Jan. 4,
1987, prior to 4:39 p.m. at which time the first transaction
appears on the cash register tape that Mr. Katerelos saved for
that day. However, it does not matter on which of those two days
the missing transactions were entered into the cash register.
This is because, regardless on which of those two days those
transactions were entered, the grand total maintained by the cash
register was increased by the transaction total of each of those
transactions.
