US isn't the only country that uses dollar signs, and many countries use period instead of comma for numbers in the thousands


Ok. But us and Canada are the only ones that use “Quarters” meaning 25 cents. And we both use commas.

ok so the person that made the employee form got it wrong, since there is no such thing as 1 PENNIES

it's 1 Penny or 2 Pennies

if whoever owns the store/made the form is from a country that uses decimals to dictate thousands, they will think you are wrong for putting yes.

if they are american and meant 1 Penny, then they will think you are wrong for putting no, but they are actually wrong for writing 1 Pennies and for including numbers after the decimal point at all.

You wouldn't say 1.034 pennies? As soon as you introduce a decimal, even if it is zero, the number becomes plural in the English language.
