--- Comment #1 from Marcus <ma...@apache.org> ---
Please have a look for the digits. You are using only 2.

When you add 1 or 2 more then you will see that the result doesn't end at 2 but
more. So, it's just a rounding effect you are seeing.

Example with cell A18:

- You are expecting $1,401.38
- For OO Calc it's $1.401,3850
- With rounding it's $1.401,39

When you want to have a higher precision, then you need to work with more
digits than just 2. Click the right mouse button on cell A18 and from the
context menu choose "Format cells". In the upcoming dialog choose "Numbers".
The currently used number format is pre-selected. Here you can add more digits
with the "Decimal places" option.

You can slect al lthe cells that should get more digits and repeat the last
steps.
