Issue with What if parameter

Hello.

I was trying to set up a what if parameter in my model.

The parameter should go from -50000 to 9800000 with an increment of 100.

As you can see from the pictures attached, I am able to create this parameter.

However, when I try to change its value using the keyboard input ( not the slider) I always get -800.

Is there a reason for this behavior?

Very interesting, I was able to reproduce this. Although, I was able to get a different number if I put in 80000, that gave me a result of 77900. I was also able to reproduce it for a different parameter that spanned large negative and positive numbers. Attaching PBIX.
