Follow-up Comment #2:
This is just how the number is displayed. The default format shows only 5
significant digits on the screen, but the full 16 digits are always kept.
Take a look at the format() command with
help format
In this case, switch to a long format
format long
1837.24+603.14
ans = 2440.380000000000
This is not a bug. Marking as invalid and closing report.
