One way:

Assuming that, say $1.23 was entered as

A B
1 1 23

then

Dollars:

=SUM(A1:A100) + INT(SUM(B1:B100)/100)

Cents:

=MOD(SUM(B1:B100),100)

Now you know how to do it, can one ask why two columns? Why not, for
example, 12.25 in one cell for $12.25?

Assuming $1.23 is in cell A1, in cell B1 use =INT(A1) to return the
whole dollar value.

Then in cell C1 use =MOD(A1,1) to retunr the pennies, 0.23. You can
multiply by 100 if you'd like.

Then add columns B and C individually. Naturally column C may yield a
value of more than 100 pennies.
