SIMULINK calculation accuracy with double (floating point) accuracy

I am using SIMULINK to simulate a model. While carrying out the calculation 50% of 2e-4, the ideal result is 1e-4, but the giving result is 9.9999999e-5. In other scenarios, the calculation errors are about 1.6e-20. I will need to compare the result again to a constant of 1-e4.
The Simulink solve is configured to discrete solver with a fixed-step of 2e-7. The calculation accuracy is set to double.
My question is how to set up in Simulink so that I can get exactly what I want as 1e-4, or whether there is a way I can round the given result to 1e-4, where I do not need so much accuracy.
