Answer 1

You can use the

 money_format($format, $value)

function in php. The details of the formatting is given here .

Answer 2

Well, assuming that 1052730 is really 10527.30 as alluded to in your question:

$number = 1052730;
$decimals = $number % 100;  //30 in this case
$digits = floor($number / 100);
$paddedDecimals = str_pad($digits, 2, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT);
$out = '$' . number_format($digits, 0).'.'.$paddedDecimals;
echo $out; // $10,527.30

There are no floating point calculations used for the decimal part, so there's no need to worry about precision issues (although at this precision it would likely be hard to get a float error in there)...

Answer 3

Just divide by 100:

<?php

echo number_format(1052730/100, 2, '.', ',') . PHP_EOL;
echo number_format(956700/100, 2, '.', ',') . PHP_EOL;

Answer 4

printf ("$%01.2f", ($input / 100));
