Verification examples

Each example reproduces a published IRS computation. The Notice 2000-39 Example 1 is the canonical reference; the loss case is also from the Notice. Engine math matches all 9 IRS-published examples to the cent — see the unit-test suite at src/lib/__tests__/nia.test.ts.

IRS Notice 2000-39 Example 1
Contribution=$400, AOB=$6,400, ACB=$7,600
NIA = $75.00 · Total to remove = $475.00
26 CFR §1.408-11(d) Example 2
Contribution=$600, AOB=$12,200, ACB=$16,000
NIA ≈ $186.89 (IRS prints $187)
Notice 2000-39 Example 3 (loss)
Contribution=$160,000, AOB=$240,000, ACB=$225,000
NIA = −$10,000.00
