If I try to sell $25,000L at the $328 rate, I expect to get:

25000 / 328 * (1-0.035fee) = $73.55US
When I type those numbers into Lindex Sales Order section, I get $73.54US

With $100,000L it's

100000 / 328 * (1-0.035fee) = $294.21US
But in Lindex that comes out to US$294.19

Yeah, it's tiny pennies, but I'm just wondering if there is a rounding error on the Lindex sell orders, or if I'm not taking something into consideration?

Update: Reason why it's off is because it's rounded, twice, in our favor. You can check out in detail what's going on by looking at the Javascript in the source code for that page. Good observation!
