variable math - result is always the numerator

Of the 2 variable expressions below, the first produces a result, where the numerator value is expressed as the result.  The second expression produces an expected result.  

$(vOverheadCost) / $(vUnitCount)  

$(vNetProfitYTD) / $(vSalesYTD)

I found a community discussion log entry that suggested adding the  '='  to the expression:

=$(vOverheadCost) / $(vUnitCount)

This produced no difference in the result. 

This problem would not seem to be a result of syntax.  I'm hoping the Community can offer an explanation and I offer my thanks in advance!
