Breakage rounds dividends to the nearest or next dime · case 04
A 2.8267 dividend is paid as 2.90 or rounded to 2.80 only sometimes.
Case contract
Pari-mutuel win dividend per unit stake. The net pool is pool * (100 - takeout_pct) / 100; with a dead heat it is split equally among the winning runners. Each runner's dividend is its share divided by the stakes on it, broken down to the 10-cent step below (breakage), with a minimum of 1.10. A winner with no stakes gets None. Return dividends as "D.D0" strings in winners order.
Why this case matters
Tote operators compute dividends with takeout, breakage and minimum-dividend rules.
