    I remember as a trainee auditor when dinosaurs roamed the earth, that one clever computer programmer (the days when a computer room was equivalent to a mini supermarket in size) with a clever little wheeze, diverted all rounding differences to a phoney supplier account coded ZZZZZ1 or something similar, and cleared off with a tidy sum for his troubles.
    Wasn't that was (part of) the plot of Superman III? Richard Pryor's character did the rounding.

    Really?

    Maybe some ingenious ideas just keep on giving :)

    Do not forget that Margerete Thatcher did it and gave it to children in need.
