Default Rounding a Rounded Number

I'm working in Excel 2003 - VBA.

OldRate is a variable whose value comes from user input into a cell.
OldRate=Range("A1")

I am multiplying that variable by 1.075 and need to round up the result to
two decimal places.
NewRate=Application.Worksheetfunction.Round(OldRat e * 1.075, 2)

Then I need to multiply that rounded result by .25 and round it up to two
decimal places.
AdjustedNewRate=Application.Worksheetfunction.Roun d(NewRate * .25, 2)

If $27.11 is the old rate, I would expect that $27.11 * 1.075 = $29.14
(rounded).
And $29.14 * .25 = $7.29 (rounded).

However, I am getting $7.28 in VBA.

How do I get VBA to give me $7.29?

TIA.
