[amibroker] Profit calculation errors in backtest report

After creating a backtest I was looking at the profit calculation on 
the backtest report.  I have noticed a lot of profit calculations 
being off by +/- $0.01 or $0.02.  It seems like a rounding error, or 
decimal place error.
 
Entry was 607.08
Exit was 606.65
 
Difference is -0.43
 
Multiplier on Symbol is $250
 
Profit should be (250 * -0.43) = -107.50
 
However, the profit is showing -107.48
 
What is the issue with this?
