Product Prices + Vat

[White_Lily]

I have a CMS and it has a Commerce section, what I need it to do is calculate what the product price is, including VAT.

 

I have written the function that does this, however the problem Im having is its outputting the wrong (in terms of decimal places).

 

here is the function:

//Price + VAT
function getPriceVAT($price)
{

$vatValue = 20;

$vat = $price / 100 * $vatValue;

//Therefore price including VAT =

$priceIncVAT = $price + $vat;

return $priceIncVAT;

}

 

here is how im outputting it:

echo '<td>£'.getPriceVAT($getFig["product_price"]).'</td>';

 

It calculates it correctly but to only 1dp. which outputs: £2.4 instead of: £2.40 how can i correct this?

printf() or money_format(), such as

printf('<td>£%.2f</td>', getPriceVAT($getFig["product_price"]));

Thank you Printf worked, however money_format() apprently doesnt exist, and it broke the rest of the script.

FYI the next step down from money_format() is number_format().
