Unfortunately in the real world there are a lot of cases where things like
this happen.  Accounting calculations are the worst case most of the time.

I don't use QR for a variety of reasons, but see if there's a rounding
function available for QR calculations.  Failing that, add a calculated
field to the source dataset and do the rounding in code.
