Default Rounding up & down

I have many pages in excel with hundreds of prices. I need a formula to
round the price up or down.

For example: R 1465.55 rounded up to R 1495.00
R 1419.26 rounded down to R 1395.00
R 278.25 rounded up to R 295.00
R 749.00 rounded down to R 695.00

Default Rounding up & down

Without the R (good idea)--

=ROUND(INT(A1)/100,0)*100-5

If you have the R in the cell (bad idea, by the way)--

=ROUND(INT(--SUBSTITUTE(A1,"R",""))/100,0)*100-5

LOL - Not if you're South African :-) the R is the same as a dollar or pound
sign and in this case is possibly just a currency format.

Default Rounding up & down

Maybe something like =MROUND(A1,100)-5

Since MROUND is an Analysis Toolpak Add-in function, when rounding to a
power of 10, there's no advantage to using MROUND over ROUND:

=ROUND(A1,-2) - 5
