Abstract
An electronic cash register includes a means for storing information having respective discount prices corresponding to customer discount levels (customer levels), a code input means for entering codes of goods to be purchased, a memory for storing unit prices for each customer level of those goods subject to customer level discounts, and a reading means for reading a unit price of goods by reviewing the stored unit prices for the goods code entered by the code input means. If a key designating a customer level is depressed, the unit price of the goods designated by the subsequently entered goods designation codes for the entered customer level is read out from the memory and registered for every entry of the goods code.
