Credit Utilization Minimum Question

If I have a $1000 credit card and charge $1.00 to it. Therefore; 1.00/1000 =.001% (1/10 of a Percent) credit utilization. When a $10 charge would equal exactly .01% (1 Percent) credit utilization. Would the $1.00 charge still be as sufficient of a credit utilization as the $10 charge? Or is the $1.00 charge not enough to count towards proper credit utilization on a $1000 credit card. Thank you

But yes same for reporting purposes

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?
