    Help with a formula issue.

    what i'm trying to do is setup a spreadsheet for a game for refining of ore into minerals and i'm having an issue

    =Refining!C5*(1000)+Refining!C6*(1000)+Refining!C7*(B5)+Refining!C7*(5%*(1000))

    the issue i'm having is with this final part

    +Refining!C7*(5%*(1000))

    basically what I need it to do is calculate the base amount of ore + an additional 5% of ore for the type of ore it is

    the way it comes out in the form is 2050.00 but it should be coming out as 3050.00

    Re: Help with a formula issue.

    Have you tried "105%" instead of "5%"?
