Thank you, I was finally able to make the ceiling formula work. Can you advise how i would then multiply the hours:minutes:seconds times a rate to get the billable dollar figure ( 123 hours 15 minutes 25 seconds at a billing rate of 0.008. I can't get it to convert to a dollar figure, only hours and minutes.

Is that 0.008 per hour? If so, use
=time*24*0.008
and format the cell with the formula as number or as currency.
