Hello,
i develop a PayPal Application for my company. I use the offical PayPal PHP SDK.
I have a big mathematical problem to send you a invoice that is equal to our system because i can only send you unitprices with 2 digits after the comma.
For example we need to make an invoice with a position of 15,00 EUR brutto for our customers.
If we calculate the netto price with a tax of 19% (15,00/1.19) we get 12.60504202 as the netto Price. Rounded for business is this 12.61.
But:
12.61 with 19% Tax (12.61*1.19 = 15.0059) = 15,01 EUR
(12.60 with 19% Tax = 14,99 EUR)
I will never get 15,00 EUR in the invoice as the brutto price if i can only send 2 digits after the comma for a netto unit price.
What can i do to solve this problem?
This is the error nessage i've got after sending a unit price with 4 digits after the comma:
