In this case, it is a severe case of rounding.

To display on reports, the annual budget is divided by 12 and rounded. Then,
if a total column is displayed, the columns are summed up, and rounded. So,
for those cases there will be a difference. Keep in mind that the total
column might for a different number of months than the budget, eg. the 3
next months or so.

What I could do in these cases is rounding the number to decimal places + 1.
That would avoid most problems but the most severe cases.
