It would help a lot to see the code in the loop. I've got a hunch that
it's not the
$finalPrice += $itemPrice;
which is causing the problem, but before that line $itemPrice gets a
wrong value. Could you check the value of $itemPrice before you add it
to the $finalPrice?

Yes it does.
Something else is behind this problem.
