Default Rounding Up to the 50

Are there any functions which will round numbers up to the nearest 50? eg.
50, 100, 150, 200, etc.

Default Rounding Up to the 50

Supposing your number is in A1. Try the following:
=IF(A1-FLOOR(A1,50)<25,FLOOR(A1,50),CEILING(A1,50))

If you need to Round UP only then use only:
=CEILING(A1,50)

=ROUND(A1/50,0) * 50

You subject line says "round up to 50", which is different from "round
to the nearest 50". Which is it?

One way to round to the nearest 50:

=mround(A1,50)

If you get a #NAME? error, use Excel Help to find information on how
to use the MROUND function.

Alternatively:

=round(A1/50,0)*50

That also makes it easy to round up or down to a multiple of 50:

=roundup(A1/50,0)*50

=rounddown(A1/50,0)*50

One of those solutions should work for you.
