Mike's response makes sense to me. If the precision is 2, the result should round to that precision. The documents showing the theory behind the decimal spec indicate that in general mathematical operations are exact, only the results get rounded. Also IIRC, the use of InvalidOperation is limited to the mathematical part, not the rounding step.
