LOL -- I once had to carry an adjustment account with a very small 
amount in it (so I could reconcile) for THREE MONTHS. That's because the 
bank officer decided that they had no policy in place for  "small error 
and the account of a 501(c)3" << should he just donate the few cents to 
us? >> So it had to get onto the agenda of a BoD meeting of the bank. 
Not to fix this one little error but to set a general policy.
