Financial Precision

RULE: Never use f64 for money
WHY: Floating point loses precision
RUST: Use rust_decimal::Decimal

Audit Requirements

RULE: All transactions must be immutable and traceable
WHY: Regulatory compliance, dispute resolution
RUST: Arc<T> for sharing, event sourcing pattern

Consistency

RULE: Money can't disappear or appear
WHY: Double-entry accounting principles
RUST: Transaction types with validated totals

Trace Down ↓

From constraints to design (Layer 2):

"Need immutable transaction records"
    ↓ m09-domain: Model as Value Objects
    ↓ m01-ownership: Use Arc for shared immutable data

"Need precise decimal math"
    ↓ m05-type-driven: Newtype for Currency/Amount
    ↓ rust_decimal: Use Decimal type

"Need transaction boundaries"
    ↓ m12-lifecycle: RAII for transaction scope
    ↓ m09-domain: Aggregate boundaries

Key Crates

Design Patterns

Code Pattern: Currency Type

use rust_decimal::Decimal;

#[derive(Clone, Debug, PartialEq)]
pub struct Amount {
    value: Decimal,
    currency: Currency,
}

impl Amount {
    pub fn new(value: Decimal, currency: Currency) -> Self {
        Self { value, currency }
    }

    pub fn add(&self, other: &Amount) -> Result<Amount, CurrencyMismatch> {
        if self.currency != other.currency {
            return Err(CurrencyMismatch);
        }
        Ok(Amount::new(self.value + other.value, self.currency))
    }
}
