Great work may have to pass through these stages – ridicule, opposition, and then acceptance. Each man who thinks ahead of his time will probably be greatly misunderstood.- vivekananda
It seems the output from Query analyzer is correct as far as arithmetic is concerned. —

Seems the second value : 1.1480 is being missed out in Reporting services report as this is exactly the difference if you take precision upto two digits —

At the reporting services report,
drag in the field to a textbox then right click on the textbox, choose Expression Edit the expression:
="$" & Format(sum(Fields!YourFieldName.value, YourDataSetName),"##,###,##0.00") and you should be able to get the correct result..
