but the info You posted before shows ---
a quick and dirty computation shows that
278304 + 249000 ==> 527304
and that
( -278304 ) - 249000 ==> - 527304
which is exactly what You got
( any decent IT practitioner would have noticed that )
Your analysis could not be more wrong ...
subtracting a negative number from a negative number gives a MORE negative number
and a negative number was what You had in some preceding computations
again ... the topic is becoming a waste of time for everybody and it should be locked as I did before
