Excel columns do not add correctly.
The column totals with both AutoSum and manually entered formula are off
(low) by 2 to 3 cents. There are no formula errors. I do not see where any figures are being rounded. I NEED HELP! |

If your data is calculated, it probably is rounding.
change your column to show at least 4 or 5 decimal places then look for rounding. you may need to formally round off the data to the precision you want.

To confirm BJ's assertion that rounding IS the issue, see if the SUM() you
are getting matches what you would get by using this array formula - meaning you have to enter it by pressing Shift+Ctrl+Enter =SUM(ROUND(data range,2)) If the above formula gives you the value you expect, then you're going to need to have to deal with rounding the values.

Thank you, BJ, and Duke! I tried the array formula and it comes out correct.
You are much appreciated!!!
