In one formula you reference it on the Financial Analysis sheet, containing 12.4%. In the other formula you reference C119 in the Valuation Metrics sheet, but you don't show the the value of that cell. I bet it contains a number close to -0.00014299004568567. So, something like -0.001429%. The formulae do exactly what you tell it to do. If the outcome is wrong you perhaps referenced the wrong cells.
