This is acceptable??  What was the voltage applied to the load?
(You may have to deduce this from the current.)  I can't see
how any answer is acceptable.  The simulators in question must
silently place GMIN-like resistors in series with the voltage
sources -- perhaps then the resulting voltage is the "average"
of the two sourced voltages?
