I think I'm too tired and am over thinking this one.

I have a chart that I'm trying to calculate the total cost for x amount of products at a price before tax and need to add in that tax for a total cost.

For example:

ABCD
42TotalsBags918
43Lbs.440879
44$ 24.16Cost$ 224.10

C42:D42D42=SUM(D2,D7,D12,D17,D22,D27,D32,D37)/50*2
C43:D43D43=SUM(D2,D7,D12,D17,D22,D27,D32,D37)*2
C44C44=(C42*A$44)+(A$44*C42*5.5%)

You can see in C44, the formula is not coming out right, it should equal $229.39. I've tried different formulas, etc but I just can't make Excel come out right... what am I doing wrong?
 
Can you give me a better hint than that? Excel is not liking turning

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
How about
Excel Formula:
=roundup(SUM(C2,C7,C12,C17,C22,C27,C32,C37)/50*2,0)
