German term or phrase: kumuliert

The phrasing of this sentence, especially the word 'kumuliert' is causing me a headache. The context is the monthly report for a hotel/camping site facility, reporting on one month's figures. The previous sentences reported the occupancy rates and number of overnight guests.

Der Nettoumsatz/Roomrate pro Zelt liegt kumuliert bei durchschnittlich 46,07€.

Thank you. Seems to be a somewhat unusual way of writing the sentence, as you say, "it needs reorganising".

totals / amounts to

Explanation:
kumulieren just means to cumulate, namely to bring together so as to increase in mass or number.

So either totals or amounts to would probably work here:

The net price/room rate per tent totals an average of 46.07 euros.

The net price/room rate per tent amounts to an average of 46.07 euros.
