Newb Question about city calculations

[Glen]

My question is about the order in which each contributing factor towards each cities sceince contributions is worked out.

Ok i dont think that makes much sense so ill explain using examples

if the calculation was:

Cities Base Income (100) + Trade Income (200) - Maintinance Costs (20) + Improvments (+60%) x science percentage (60%)

Then total science for that city would be 268.8

If it was:

Cities Base Income (100) + Trade Income (200) + Improvments (+60%) - Maintinance Costs (20) x science percentage (60%)

Then the total science contributions would be 276

Or if it was:

Cities Base Income (100) - Maintinance Costs (20) + Improvments (+60%) + Trade Income (200) x science percentage (60%)

then the total would be 196.8

So as you can see depending on the order in which the calculation is worked out change what the overall outcome is.

What i want to know is - what is this order? So if anyone understandes what im asking can you please tell me the answer!

Thanks
