is the 2nd test case wrong? for @()999000*(1+rand/100), I get result as " 1.003848902730741e+006" which gives status as "Millionaire"? Or am I missing something out here?

You need to get _several_ results from the formula that are _all_ $1000000 or more to be able to classify that case as "Millionaire".
