Issue with Calculation Formula in Gravity Forms – Validation Error

I’m currently building a calculator form using Gravity Forms on my WordPress website to calculate the break-even point. The form includes a calculation field with the following formula:

{Fixed Costs:1} / ({Selling Price per Unit:3} - {Variable Cost per Unit:2})

When I click “Validate” under the calculation field settings, I get a validation error, and the formula doesn’t seem to save properly.

I’ve double-checked that:

  • All the referenced fields are number fields
  • The merge tags were inserted via the dropdown to avoid typos
  • Parentheses are correctly placed
  • No field is left blank during testing

Despite this, the formula throws an error. Could you please advise what might be causing this issue or how I can resolve it?

If needed, I’m happy to provide a link to the form or export the form structure for your review.

Looking forward to your assistance.
