Default Adding up a column of percents

I need to know the formula for adding up a row of percents....
I am trying to find the total of 5 percetages - this is a sales increase on
5 different accounts that i need to total.
0.044
0.054
0.009
-0.021
0.036
how do i get these to total correctly in a formula that i can put in my
worksheet?

There's nothing special about percents. Just use SUM.

if your data is in row 2, say B2:F2, a simple SUM() will work.

=sum(b2:f2)

Is your problem a little more complicated than this, perhaps?
