Default ROUND

I need to know how to rewrite the following formula to round to 2 decimals,
not just display two decimals. Round down, round up I am not sure which.

=IF(B10="","",(B10*$A$8%))

this results in a number like this: 26.2529

The problem is that this is used in another formula and because the first
amount wan't rounded it throws off the calculation. Thanks

Maybe this is what you want:

=IF(B10="","",(ROUND(B10*$A$8%,2)))
