    F2 = -4084.22448 even though you have it formatted to be positive. Do you expect it to be positive? or did you want to force it to be positive (Use ABS(formula) in F2)

    substitute commas with semi-colons if your region settings requires

    Re: Currency subtraction issue

    you have a dodgy format on f2 that doesn't show a negative try formating as a normal currency format

    in f2
    =D2*(E2-1) is 4167x(0.02-1)= -4084
    try d2*(1-e2) instead
