Points per base discrepancy?

I've been having a play with the army builder to adjust the ready to play Sassanid Persion pacto army to the figures that I have.
TuG's all seem to be fine but I'm getting quite different points per base costs for the SuG's in the army builder compared to the values in the ready to play list. e.g. Horse archers come out at 85 vs 73, Slingers 42 vs 32, Javalinmen 27 vs 22. I've double checked that I've input the correct skill's etc. Any sugestions as to where I might be going wrong?
Thanks

After some very helpful suggestions and advice from Nik I've found that the problem was with me not the Army builder! I was using Numbers (Mac) instead of Excel. I downloaded Libra Office and everything now works as it should and getting the correct points values with the Sug's.

Sorry for the false alarm! and thank you Nik for your generous help.

Never a problem.  People very helpful here always.
Just relieved it wasn't me  :o ;)

Si, might be worth adding a note on the spreadsheet 'Instructions' tab that it is tested with MS Excel and Office Libra and may not function as intended with other products (including Numbers on Mac).

I'll take a look but I thought it was there already.
If not I will install on next update.
