annual retirement visa - Currency Conversion Rate

When I take my annual pension to the immigration office (notarized letter by the British embassy) what exchange rate do they use to determine if I meet the 800,000 baht requirement. Is it a mean average over the year or the current rate!!
Thanks in advance for help
