The program flow isn't wrong.  If your program does a PERFORM and you
are stepping one statement at a time, Interest will move from paragraph
name to paragraph name until it hits the actual paragraph to be
executed.  It will then actually execute the code in that paragraph and
return to the PERFORM when it is done.
