Apply a percentage increase to a whole price list
Paste rows from Excel or Google Sheets (with the header row), or a CSV. Pick the price column, the percentage and how to round. The result keeps every original column and adds a New price column, ready to paste back. Nothing is uploaded.
The formulas, if you would rather do it in the sheet
Put the percentage in F1 (4.5% as 0.045) and the price in C2, then fill down:
Nearest cent:
=ROUND(C2*(1+$F$1),2)
Up to the next 0.05:
=CEILING(C2*(1+$F$1),0.05)
Up to the next .99 ending:
=CEILING(C2*(1+$F$1)+0.01,1)-0.01
Worked example: +4.5% on five fastener lines
| SKU | Description | Price | Nearest cent | Up to 0.05 | .99 ending |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HX-210 | Hex bolt 3/8 x 2in (box 50) | $12.40 | $12.96 | $13.00 | $12.99 |
| HX-212 | Hex bolt 3/8 x 3in (box 50) | $15.85 | $16.56 | $16.60 | $16.99 |
| WS-038 | Flat washer 3/8 (box 100) | $4.10 | $4.28 | $4.30 | $4.99 |
| NT-038 | Hex nut 3/8 (box 100) | $5.95 | $6.22 | $6.25 | $6.99 |
| AN-500 | Anchor kit 1/2in | $27.30 | $28.53 | $28.55 | $28.99 |
Rounding is not neutral: on low-priced lines a .99 ending can add far more than the percentage you meant to apply. Check the biggest effective increases before you publish a list.
