Your current formula is:
=IF(E8="BA1",(T8/1.125)-((T8/1.125-164.8)/1.103))-260,(T8/1.125)-((T8/1.125-164.8)/1.103)
It should be this:
=IF(E8="BA1",(T8/1.125)-((T8/1.125-164.8)/1.103)-260,(T8/1.125)-((T8/1.125-164.8)/1.103))
Which can be simplified to:
=(T8/1.125)-((T8/1.125-164.8)/1.103)-IF(E8="BA1",260)
