Based off the select you printed, this comes to EXACTLY 548.595 for the first 
row and 0 for the second row.

The more detailed result here, though, seems to suggest that there's a longer 
fraction in your table than is printed by your select. Would your column happen 
to be a Float?

Which is the correct rounding for 548.595. Check if your column is a float, and 
if it is, go google for floating point mathematics. They do not work the way 
you think they do. Use decimal(n,m) for money - or any discrete number, for 
that matter. Floats are not exact values, they are APPROXIMATE values.

you an idea of what goes wrong.
