Overview of Rounding to Nearest 1000 in Excel using ROUND, ROUNDUP, ROUNDOWN, CEILING and FLOOR functions

Rounding to the nearest 1000 in Excel can be done using Excel functions ROUNDROUNDUP, ROUNDOWN, CEILING, CEILING.MATH, FLOOR, FLOOR.MATH, MROUND; using Excel Power Query and combining Excel SIGN, ABS and MROUND functions.

Note: We have used the Microsoft 365 version in this article. But all of these methods shown here except the FLOOR.MATH and CEILING.MATH functions and the Power Query feature are applicable to any Excel version.
The FLOOR.MATH and CEILING.MATH functions are available in Excel 2013 and later versions.
The Power Query feature is available in Excel 2010 and later versions.

Rounding to the nearest 1000 is useful to simplify data presentation or calculations. Especially, when you’re dealing with large numbers or big financial figures, it is better you convert numbers to the nearest 1000; it makes the data more manageable and easier to understand. It also eliminates unnecessary detail or decimal places when such precision is not required.


What Is Rounding to Nearest 1000?

Rounding to the nearest 1000 means that we want to adjust a number to the closest multiple of 1000. For example, if you have a number 4850, and you want to round it to the nearest 1000, the result will be 5000, as 5000 is the nearest thousandth multiple of 4850.

In mathematics, there are 2 rules for rounding off a number to the nearest 1000.

Rule 1: When you want to round a number to the nearest 1000, and if the hundredth place digit of the number is less than 5, then the hundredth, tenth, and oneth places are replaced by 0. Like rounding off 25345 results 25000.

Rule 2: To round a number to the nearest 1000, and if the hundreds place digit of the number is greater than or equal to 5, then the hundredth, tenth, and oneth places are replaced by 0 and the thousands place is increased by 1. Like rounding off 25645 results 26000.

Showing Rounded numbers to nearest 1000 using Excel SIGN, ABS and MROUND functions

Formula Breakdown:

Let’s explain how this formula works:
=SIGN(B5)*MROUND(ABS(B5),ABS(1000))
=SIGN(B5)*MROUND(25645,1000) // ABS(B5) returns 25645 and ABS(1000) returns 1000 as the absolute value.
=SIGN(B5)*MROUND(25645,1000)
=SIGN(B5)*26000 // MROUND(25645,1000) returns 26000 because this function rounds the value 25645 to the nearest 1000.
=1*26000 // SIGN(B5) returns 1 because the number in cell B5 is positive.
=26000 // Because the multiplication result is 26000.


10. Using Custom Number Format to Display Numbers Rounded to Nearest 1000

  1. is there a video on this, if not, pl make a video so that it can be understood very easily.

    it is difficult to read and understand. If the same is explained in a video it can be understood very easily.

  2. How can we roundUp to first decimal in cell formatting itself (without using formulae)?
    E.g
    1. If I write 44.41 it show 44.5
    2. If I write 44.45 it shows 44.5
    3. If I write 44.49 it show 44.5

      Hello ISH SHARMA!
      You can increase and decrease decimal digits from the format options. But Through this, it will round to the nearest decimal. Suppose, when you round the value 44.41, it will be rounded to 44.4, not 44.5 and for the value 44.45, it will become 44.5.

      To use this method,
      >> Select the cell.
      >> Go to the Home tab in the top ribbon.
      >> Here, in the Number menu, click on the “Increase Decimal” icon to increase the decimal digits after the point, and click on the “Decrease Decimal” to decrease the decimal digits.

      I hope, your problem will be solved in this way. You can share more problems in an email at [email protected]
