    How to fix calculation when handling costs?

    Hi guys,

    I was calculating costs and I notice the amounts in column D are correct but its calculated in correctly in cell N2 when referenced? I broke the calculation down in columns L through O. My other question is, I have the column D amounts formatted as Accounting, why does it show the .00 and if I remove it it is then formatted as Custom but the above two amounts are fine?

    Thank you in advance if you can assist.

    accounting default is 2 decimal places
    you can change the decimals under formatting

    Ah yes, is there a way to only apply it zeros though?

    This seems to work thank you for sharing this, I noticed it rounded the 14.65 though to 15. But it definitely removed the zeros and left 0.55 as is.
