Hello, Some of my cell totals are off by one penny!
 
In my payroll spreadsheet used to track deductions and PR taxes due I found some (not all) totals are off by a penny. This is so weird. I don't have any rounding selected & I have decimal selected at 2 places (normal currency).


1) Link to my screenshot: /Users/sandyryan/Desktop/Screen Shot 2016-04-07 at 1.46.23 PM.png


2) Pasted Screenshot he

https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui...6d&zw&atsh =1

I've attempted to add a screenshot but I'm not sure if either of them will work (there are 2 different attempts at adding it here).

In case the screenshots don't work, these are the figures in one example:
3/4/16 $108.04
3/5/16 $107.57
3/18/16 $107.57
3/25/16 $107.34 These figures are part of a formula that takes them from each of the employees Payroll deduction on different sheets in same spreadsheet.

March Total $430.51 (SHOULD BE $430.52) This # is a simple sum of the above 4 cells.

Quarter 1 Total $1,283.63 (off by 2 cents as the same thing happened in my February column, however the January column is correct.) Ugh!


I would very much appreciate any help I might receive!! Thank you!

Use ROUND instead format for the cells with the formulas.

Invariably the result of calculations, not of the totalising.

Try highlighting those (in your example) four totalled figures and the
total, and then reformat to show more decimal places. ("0-00"). The
fractional cents/pennies will become apparent.
