Cell not adding correctly - Problem.xls (0/1)

Cell I4 is a penney off, and I can't understand why.
I know it's only a penney but I have other cells in the whole
spreadsheet that is also off.

Thanks Bobby

Use tools>options>calculations and precision as displayed
or use the round function. You probably suffer from underlying values
being not the same as displayed

Thanks it worked.
Never ran into this before, have to read on what it does.
Thanks again

If you format for currency and 2 decimals and a value like

$1.12

might be

1.12345

now if you have a lot of thos values eventually there will be a discrepancy.
I personally prefer rounding to precision as displayed
