how to make excel multiply numbers with 3 decimals?
Ok, my english is lousy but i will try to explain somehow.
This is the calculation I have made in excel
1152,31*0,15=172,85
And this is one made with ancient accounting calculator my boss uses:
1152,31*0,15=172,84
You get the picture?
So, I work with taxes and I have loads of calculation to do. Is there any way to set up excel so it can calculate numbers like this(automatically with two decimals) because my boss believes only in his ancient calculator...
If anyone knows, please hurry, I have a deadline in 2 days...
That number is rounded down from 172,8465....
Excel has a Rounddown() function...
=Rounddown(number,decimals)
e.g. =Rounddown(1152,31*0,15;2)

OK THANX!! NOW,
i have one more small request. I have 3 major formulas and i have managed to insert rounddown to 2 of them. I need a little help with third...
=(IF(H5<540;(0);(IF(G5<9000;((G5-3600)*0,25);(5400*0,25)))))
Try:
=ROUNDDOWN(IF(H5<540;0;IF(G5<9000;((G5-3600)*0,25);(5400*0,25)));2)

get him to do it manually! then he will see the calculator is erronous.because my boss believes only in his ancient calculator...
1152.31*0.15
=115231 *10^-2 * 15*10^-2
=115231 *15 *10^-2*10^-2
=115231 *15 *10^-4
115231
x 15
-------
576155
1152310
-----------
1728465
1728465 x 10^-4 =172.8465
