Are you actually seeing this with the example you gave? Because floating point precision issues should only be affecting really small numbers, or causing a very small difference from what you expect, nothing like cents out of ten dollars. And yes, calculators have the exact same issue, there are certain math operations you can do to reveal prevision limitations.
