...all November 8th, no earnings calculated yet.

Is this a calc glitch or some new, unknown split emerging?

Obviously a rounding issue.

That was my first thought. What would be rounded? I assumed each click would be rounded to the nearest cent. Maybe not.

Thanks ASA, now we can bring this thread to bed.

I'll give an example using three made up figures:-

$3.5625 --> gets shown as $3.56
$5.6356 --> gets shown as $5.63
$2.4589 --> gets shown as $2.45

$11.65 --> total :$11.64 - discrepancy of $0.01

Of course as people have reported negative and positive rounding errors, the amounts are probably rounded up (if more than a half) and rounded down. After all if it's a % of what Google earns it's hardly likely to come to a round number of cents. Just my two cents. *grins*

I understand how rounding works, i just assumed when I see a click worth three cents that
A) I've been screwed and
B) That the rounding (if any) has occurred and that number is the actual number I am being paid.

Also, how can rounding three numbers result in a rounding error of more than one cent. Correctly rounding would lead to a maximum difference of less than 1.5 in almost all cases which would always result in a difference no greater than plus or minus 1 cent (rounded).

I can't believe I am discussing where my pennies went.;)

Google must have contracted with the Diebold company to handle the data ;)

I also see the 6 lines of information with different dollar amounts in each line, but show no total for payment calculated. It appears blank.

Just curious if others are seeing this as well.

[level80]

It's blank because the cheques haven't been approved yet. I think what people are discussing is the total amount rather than the payment calculated amount.

Thanks level80. The new reporting format threw me off a bit ;-)
