No that is not what I think but when I want to add positive number to a
negative number I want to get closer to 0.

First, you SUM() function is superfluous. SUM(A1) returns A1.
I'm not sure why you think that positive 7 should be 50% of negative 14,
but you can achieve your goal using
=A1 + ABS(A1)/2

This is probably real simple for somebody, I just can't get it.
If I want 50% more of something in cell A1 I would Type:
=SUM(A1)+(A1*50%)
So if A1 is 14 the result would be 21...Perfect.
But if A1 is (14) the result is (21) Not the (7) I wanted.
Can anybody help???
