plpgsql doesn't currently enforce domain constraints, so the assignment
to n isn't doing the rounding that you expect.  Until someone gets
around to fixing that, an explicit coercion is probably what you need:

        n := cast($1 * 0.2::float4 AS currency);

Keep in mind also that declaring a function result value as a domain
is pretty dangerous, because none of the PLs enforce domain constraints
on their results.
