Android proration calculator not correct results

I am working on a proration calculator app for Android. When I run the code below, I get an incorrect result. 

public void calc(View v)
{
    double myAmount = Double.parseDouble(amount.getText().toString());
    double myDaysLeft = Double.parseDouble(daysLeft.getText().toString());

    myAmount = Double.parseDouble(amount.getText().toString());
    myDaysLeft = Double.parseDouble(amount.getText().toString());

    double calcResult = (myAmount /30) * myDaysLeft;
    String tot = new Double(calcResult).toString();
    result.setText(tot);

The values I am entering are myAmount = 25.99 myDaysLeft = 10. When I run it in my app I get 22.51. The correct result should be 8.66. Can anyone help me determine where the error lies? Thanks in advance!

myDaysLeft = Double.parseDouble(amount.getText().toString());

You are using ammount here when it should me myDaysLeft

myDaysLeft = Double.parseDouble(amount.getText().toString());

should be

myDaysLeft = Double.parseDouble(daysLeft.getText().toString());

However, you can just delete the 3rd and 4th lines as you are already setting the variables in the 1st and 2nd lines when you declare them. Why assign them twice?
