I have a field called Useage.. no formatting or rules on the actual field, 
just a raw Number field that often has up to 4 decimal places

on a form, I display it "w.2", but I can click on the field and see the 
actual value, if it's .025 or anything like that.. so far, normal behavior 
that I expected

but when I use that field in a calc, it's using the formatted version of the 
field, not the real field.. in the example above, it showed me .03 on the 
form, of course.. I clicked on it and saw .025.. it did the resultant math 
with .03.. but I look at the table afterwards, it's .025

useage * tc.unitcost

in my example, tc.unitcost is 182.. times .025 is 4.55, times .03 is 5.46.. 
it's displaying 5.46
