My cost is 50 and I add 50% markup and 14% vat. =(a1*1.5*1.14). The answer is
85.50 and I want it to read 89. I want all the prices to end in a 9. So in
effect I want to round all the numbers to end in nine. Hope you can help me.
Are you from Holland. Your surname is very common here in South Africa.
Regards
Sue

You can try this with the value in A2

=LEFT(INT(A2),LEN(INT(A2))-1)&9

Are you from Holland

You already have your answer from Fred,
But FWIW:

=CEILING(A1*1.5*1.14+1,10)-1

Sue,



Are you aware that all three formulae give different results?



(1) =LEFT(INT(A2),LEN(INT(A2))-1)&9



(2) =ROUNDUP(A1*1.5*1.14,-1)-1



(3) =CEILING(A1*1.5*1.14+1,10)-1



(1) = text format (2) and (3) = number



If after 50% markup and 14% VAT, the value is 99.99, formula (1) and (2) will give you 99 whereas formula (3) will give you 109. The discrepancy may not show unless certain values are hit.



Just want to highlight this fact for all readers.



Epinn
