I agree that this is odd behaviour and that '5' should always round up (as
in FileMaker and Excel):
round (39.105,2) should round up to 39.11 because
round (39.15,1) rounds up to 39.2
You could 'cheat' by always adding 0.00001 to your amounts. This would
oblige a 5 to think it's a wee bit bigger and so respond appropriately.
Alternatively, set all the source data to 4 decimal places (set the
numberFormat to "0.0000") and the final calc to 2 (set the numberFormat to
"0.00").
