The resulting answer is 2.35 in both cases when i use the formula that Thomas
gave. Since 2.35 ends in .05, the ceiling of .05 keeps it at 2.35

in situation #1, i would want answer to be 2.35
in situation #2, i would want answer to be 2.40

Hi,

I'm confused

M53 =1
P53=2.35
What answer do you expect?

M53=999
P53 =2.35
What answer do you expect?

but i need it to round up to the nearest .05, say if p53 was 2.30 but not
m53/.85 then i would need it to equal 2.35

Maybe

=IF(P53M53/0.85,P53,CEILING(P53,0.1))

Thanks Mike,

One more question for you, if p53=2.35 but is not m53/.85, the if command
is still answering 2.35 since it ends in .05. How can I get it to go up to
2.40?

Hi,

You don't need the quotes or the = sign

=IF(P53M53/0.85,P53,CEILING(P53,0.05))

I am using:

=IF(P53M53/0.85,P53,"=ceiling(P53,0.05)")

if I copy and paste down, ceiling(p53,0.05) doesn't change to p54, p55, p56
etc... what do i need to do to make this happen?
