I'm trying to calculate what the new price of an item would be based on
cutting 10% off of an existing price...I can't get the answer to come out as
currency!

Don't confuse data STORAGE with data PRESENTATION.

Let the calculation work in the query; and display the query in a Textbox on a
Form or Report. Set the Format property of that textbox to Currency and you'll
see the result formatted as currency.
