Google-sheets – The cell is filled with $0,00 but IF(Cell >0;True;False) return True

formulasgoogle sheets

In Google Sheets, when I compare a Cell filled with $0,00 using:

CELL [$0,00]

IF(Cell > 0; true; false). 

It returns true, but Cell is = 0. It should return false.

It seems to be related to floating point. What can I do to IF consider $0,00 equal to 0?

P.S. I did the same formula in another Google sheet but there the sheet consider $0,00 equal to 0 and return false.

  • in terms of currency it's safe to introduce a small fix with ROUNDDOWN formula to ensure that $0.001 of the cent is considered as $0.00
