Using your exact code I get 33435.0000 in my field member named "total" (the correct 
answer coverted to a float). Are you sure you don't have multiple members sharing 
names and thus you might be expecting to get the result of 27935+5500 but you're 
actually getting some other numbers resulting in an unexpected value?

Cheers,
Tom
