`Money.to_string(Money.new(75000000, :UGX))` is converting to million instead of thousand

[flashup4all]

In the following example, am expecting UGX to return something like a thousand Ush750,000.00 but am getting a million Ush75,000,000 instead.

Money.to_string(Money.new(75000000, :USD)) response = "$750,000.00"

Money.to_string(Money.new(75000000, :NGN)) response = "₦750,000.00"

Money.to_string(Money.new(75000000, :UGX)) response = "Ush75,000,000"

How do I ensure I get the appropriate output?

@flashup4all Each currency has an exponent that expresses the decimal relationship between the currency and its minor unit. For example, the U.S. dollar has 100 cents, which is 10 to the power of 2, so the exponent for the U.S. dollar is 2 and Money.new(100, :USD) is 1 U.S. dollar. According to ISO 4217, the currency UGX has an exponent equal to 0, which means that for a given currency, the minor unit is 1 UGX and Money.new(100, : UGX) is 100 UGX
