I think there might be server problem. So wait for some time and try again.

The issue is in rounding up. you just converted double to int. that's not rounding up. rounding up always gets the next whole number. 3.1 rounded up = 4 3.8 rounded up = 4 delete the conversion and use Math.ceil(), (int) is just there to get rid of decimal point. // converts sum to integer // int finaleCost = (int) sum; System.out.println((int)Math.ceil(sum));
