RE: Rounding Errors. <G> I said: I'm projecting $0.54. Q1 0.09, Q2 0.12, Q3 0.14, and Q4 0.20. And tom replied: >> Unless my arithmetic skills have slipped, doesn't that add up to a penny more than $0.54<< Rounding errors, of course. My EPS numbers are calculated based on other figures and rounded to the nearest cent. The yearly total EPS projection is the same calculation, but based on the totals for the year. Here's a little more detail: Q1 = $0.0903 Q2 = $0.1171 Q3 = $0.1394 Q4 = $0.1962 1998 = $0.5430 Does that make me more credible now? <G> - Michael Coley - wwol.com P.S. Yes, I know you were joking. ;)
