Default Sum Function

The cells to be added need not only be formatted to 2 decimal places, they
also have to be rounded (see for ROUND function), so that that Excel
calculates values exactly as they are being displayed.

Hi,

I have a spreadsheet invoice were most of the line charges are formulas
looking up other spreadsheets.

There is a sum function for the total of the column, however when it adds:

$326.08 and $32.61 the total given is $358.61. It should be $385.69.

All the cells that are being added have been formated to 2 decinal places.

How do i get the correct answer?
