Code:
if(formulaType.equals("Currency"))
                       { nf1.setType(FieldType.Currency);
                           nf1.setPrecision(2);
                           nf1.setScale(0);
                       }
                      
                       String formula1="Field1__c+Field2__c";
    nf1.setFormula(formula1);

where nf1 is the field name variable.
