Budget not handling social security correctly (Q Mac)

Barbara O'Keeffe

Every month my budget shows a $1.00 underpayment for our combined social security even though when you look at the actual deposits, the amount deposited is the amount in the budget. I have no idea where it is getting the $1.00 from. This is consistent month to month, they show up as the total deposited being one dollar short, yet when you look at the underlying amounts, the amount deposited is exactly the same as the amount budgeted to be deposited!

My first guess is that budgets work in whole dollars, while your actual works in dollars and cents, so the difference is likely due to rounding.

Yes, when I went in and typed the actual dollars and cents in each month of the budget, then the discrepancy cleared.
