You need to use the doubleValue() method to get the double value from a BigDecimal object.
BigDecimal bd; // the value you get double d = bd.doubleValue(); // The double you want You can convert BigDecimal to double using .doubleValue(). But believe me, don't use it if you have currency manipulations. It should always be performed on BigDecimal objects directly. Precision loss in these calculations are big time problems in currency related calculations.
Use doubleValue method present in BigDecimal class :
double doubleValue() Converts this BigDecimal to a double.
