For line 59 I'm wondering if there is a difference between look at cartline.cost.totalAmount.amount instead of cartLine.merchandise.price.amount * cartLine.quantity. It seems that with the first option, no calculation is needed. I'm not sure if it gives back the same price. I'm happy to hear so if you have an idea.
