EFFECT and NOMINAL
Hi,

OOo has EFFECTIVE and EFFECT_ADD vs. Excel EFFECT, and NOMINAL and
NOMINAL_ADD vs. Excel NOMINAL, where the _ADD functions are compatible
with the Excel functions and compared to the OOo internal functions
differ only in the display format of the returned value, the OOo
internal functions display it as percentage whereas the Excel functions
don't. OOo probably can change implementation to use the Excel
compatible functions and we don't need to distinguish.

However, NOMINAL currently is in the Medium Group and EFFECT in the
Large Group. Shouldn't both be in the same group? Also, NOMINAL test
cases say level 3 while EFFECT test cases say level 1. So how do we
define it correctly?
