Rounding in Mortgage Assistant

[David Carlson]

My lender has a strange way of doing things.  If I pay more than the exact 
monthly amount, they need to make a manual adjustment in their system.  Thus 
they do not like rounding up or adding a small amount.  They are much nicer than 
the big banks, so I don't rock the boat.

No kidding.  GnuCash computes my bank-assigned payment to the penny, but that's 
not what I want.  In particular, in every home loan I've had, I've increased the 
monthly payment somewhat to (1) make the payment a round number, and (2) to pay 
off the mortgage a bit earlier.  I believe Quicken allowed that (not that 
Quicken is the gold standard for anything that GnuCash does).
