This last part is the key to the issue. It's a rounding error. The issue
is that each line-item is rounded, but the invoice sums the natural number
and rounds at the end. So what's happening here is that you have 374.1x
which rounds to 374.10, and you have 65.6y which rounds to 65.62, but when
you add x + y you get a sum that rounds up to the next penny.
E.g., 65.624 + 372.104 = 437.728 which rounds to 437.73
