wgalliance Posted June 1, 2016 Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 I need help with a calculation that needs to round to the tenth of a percent. I have an update form with four fields. The fourth field is a calculation based on the numbers entered into 1, 2, and 3. Management Expenses Fundraising Expenses Total Revenue AFR My calculation must add management + fundraising and divide that sum by Total Revenue. The result should be input into the AFR field and rounded to the tenth of a percent. A few examples of what I need to accomplish: 500 + 500 / 12,000 = 0.0833333 this should be rounded to 8.3% 600 + 500 / 12,500 = 0.088 this should be rounded to 9.0% The current code that I have used based on the first calculation above only shows 8.0%. I'm new to java so I don't know all the coding that I could be missing here. One other wrinkle is that I would like the calculation to strip any symbols. For example if someone enters $1,200 or $1,200.01 I would like to show only 1200 or 1200.01 in the field. I need a way to ensure no symbols are entered into those fields that may render a calculation error. <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> function calculate() { var v_management = parseFloat(document.getElementById("EditRecordManagemenExpenses").value); var v_fundraising = parseFloat(document.getElementById("EditRecordFundraisingExpenses").value); var v_totalrevenue = parseFloat(document.getElementById("EditRecordTotalRevenue").value); var v_afr = (([v_management + v_fundraising] / v_totalrevenue)*100); document.getElementById("EditRecordAFR").value = Math.round(v_afr).toFixed(1) + "%"; } /* On submitting the webform, the function calculate is executed */ document.getElementById("caspioform").onchange=calculate; </SCRIPT> Any help would be appreciated! One other wrinkle is that I would like the calculation to strip any symbols. For example Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
