Default Rounding Problem

Thanks everyone, that Round function should solve the problem. I also
discovered in the Excel Options how to set the precision to what is
displayed. Just have to ignore that terrible warning that my
spreadsheet will lose accuracy.

did you try

=Round((A+B)*1.06,2)

will there be no problem in your accounting sheet if you do so?

I have got a very simple accounting spreadsheet where column C is
determined by (A+B)*1.06. Cell C is formatted for dollars - two
decimal places. At the bottom of column C is a total which is usually
correct but sometimes it is out by one cent. All the calculations
across are correct. I am sure there is an easy way to fix this isn't
there? Thanks.
