Error saying, "statement cannot resolve address of overloaded function"

I'm a beginner programmer, so this is going to look messy, but I keep getting the problem that is mentioned in the title. No matter where I try to put endl; it keeps giving me the same error. Also when I run the code my total for the second store comes out right but the first store total does not. Any idea on how to fix this? I'm using codeblocks on a windows 7 computer. 

#include <iostream> //Allows cout/cin
#include <ctime> //Allows time
#include <iomanip> //Allows setprecision

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    //Include header

    //Input variables
    double widgetStores;
    double numberSoldFirst1;
    double numberSoldFirst2;
    double numberSoldSecond1;
    double numberSoldSecond2;
    double widgetsLeftS1W2;
    double widgetsLeftS2W1;
    double widgetsLeftS2W2;

    //Start Clock
    clock_t begin, end;
    double time_spent;
    begin = clock();

    //Prompt for total number in stores

    cout << "Total number of widgets at each store starting with :";
    cin >> widgetStores;

    double widgetStore1=widgetStores;
    double widgetStore2=widgetStores;
    double widgetsLeftS1W1;


    //Prompt for amount sold during first and second week

    cout << "How many widgets were sold at Store 1 the first week? ";
    cin >> numberSoldFirst1;
    cout << "How many widgets were sold at Store 1 the 2nd week? ";
    cin >> numberSoldSecond1;
    cout << "How many widgets were sold at Store 2 the first week? ";
    cin >> numberSoldFirst2;
    cout << "How many widgets were sold at Store 2 the 2nd week? ";
    cin >> numberSoldSecond2;

    //Calculate Number of widgets
    widgetsLeftS1W1-=(widgetStore1-numberSoldFirst1);
    widgetsLeftS1W2-=(numberSoldFirst1-numberSoldSecond1);
    widgetsLeftS2W1-=(widgetStore2-numberSoldFirst2);
    widgetsLeftS2W2-=(numberSoldFirst2-numberSoldSecond2);

    //Display Values
    cout << "Store 1 has " << widgetsLeftS1W2 << " widgets left after the 2nd week.";
    cout << "Store 2 has " <<widgetsLeftS2W2 << " widgets left after the 2nd week.";

    //Show time elapsed
    end = clock();
    time_spent = (double)(end - begin) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
    cout << setprecision(2) << fixed << "****Elapsed time:" <<time_spent/60 <<        "minutes****";
    return 0;

Try initializing the values of

widgetsLeftS1W1
widgetsLeftS1W2
widgetsLeftS2W1
widgetsLeftS2W2

with zero while declaring them at the top.

The only compile error this program has, is that you're using widgetsLeftS1W1, widgetsLeftS1W2, widgetsLeftS2W1 and widgetsLeftS2W2 before initializing them.

enter image description here

You probably need = instead of -=.

When you say 

widgetsLeftS1W1 -= (widgetStore1-numberSoldFirst1);

what you actually mean is 

widgetsLeftS1W1 = widgetsLeftS1W1 - (widgetStore1-numberSoldFirst1);

The computer doesn't know the value of widgetsLeftS1W1, so it gives you the error.

Conclusion: use

widgetsLeftS1W1 = (widgetStore1 - numberSoldFirst1);

Did you try something like

cout << "Total number of widgets at each store starting with :";
cin >> widgetStores;
cout << endl; //Added this

cin doesn't have a << operator, so you need to send it to cout.

Edit: I found the error you're having. I guess that you are trying to put in lines as literally

endl;

and that doesn't go anywhere...
