I need help with a calculation


this simple question sure can't work.  have mileage (beginning , ending) , want total miles driven multiplied cost per mile determine cost of mileage reimbursement.  have used field finish - field start * .555 total cost , comes out weird number not correct amount.  doing wrong?

if using simplified field notation calculation option field names can not have spaces within name unless precede space special escape character "\".

 

and input values used , result?

 

not use default calculation order , use parentheses specify oder want or multiply each mileage value per diem , perform subtraction. subtracting field start * 0.555 subtracted field finish different calculation 0.555 times difference of field finish less field start.
