I have this huge spreadsheet with a ton of formulas that was giving me odd results. I traced it back to a very simple math formula that wasn't calculating correctly.
Cell H8 contains =(E74*B8)
E74 was 1.5 and B8 was 3.69 yet cell is displaying 169.2
Cell E74 was getting the value of 1.5 by summing up a column so I changed it to 1.5 rather than have it sum, and then Cell H8 properly showed 5.5. I used the undo button to switch back to the formula, and then cell H8 was properly showing the value of 5.5....but another cell that is adding H9 to H8 is still giving a result as if H8 is the old incorrect value of 169.2
Please see attached screenshots. Sorry am not allowed to share actual sheet.
