I have a data JSON data which looks like this 

  [
   {gen-acute-sales-before-returns: 8112.755},
   {gen-acute-sales-before-returns: 6198.77},
   {gen-acute-sales-before-returns: 8112.755},
   {gen-acute-sales-before-returns: 6198.77},
   {gen-acute-sales-before-returns: 8112.755},
   {gen-acute-sales-before-returns: 6198.77},
   {gen-acute-sales-before-returns: 8112.755},
   {gen-acute-sales-before-returns: 6198.77}
  ]

basically, I want to sum the total sales value in gen-acute-sales-before-returns

I am trying this 

data.reduce((a, b) => ({totalSales: a.gen-acute-sales-before-returns + b.gen-acute-sales- before-returns})))

It is giving error

Uncaught (in promise) ReferenceError: acute is not defined

    You can't access JavaScript variable names with dashes with dot notatation. You need to use bracket notation. So `a["gen-acute-sales-before-returns"]` and not `a.gen-acute-sales-before-returns` – Benjamin Gruenbaum Oct 26 '18 at 19:41

That is because for the JSON keyValue, you are not able to use the -. So with below code it will work.

let values = [
   {"gen-acute-sales-before-returns": 8112.755},
   {"gen-acute-sales-before-returns": 6198.77},
   {"gen-acute-sales-before-returns": 8112.755},
   {"gen-acute-sales-before-returns": 6198.77},
   {"gen-acute-sales-before-returns": 8112.755},
   {"gen-acute-sales-before-returns": 6198.77},
   {"gen-acute-sales-before-returns": 8112.755},
   {"gen-acute-sales-before-returns": 6198.77}
 ]

values.reduce(
    (accumulator, currentValue) => accumulator + currentValue["gen-acute-sales-before-returns"]
    ,0
);
