Rounding down in hundreds

Hi all, here's a quick for which I haven't been able to track down a quick solution on Google. The 2 amounts delivered ('outgoings' and 'alreadyprotected' will always be between 0 and 9999.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.  
  2.  function unprotectedcalc(){
  3.     var outgoings = document.getElementById('EssOutgoings');
  4.     var alreadyprotected = document.getElementById('ProtectedPayments');
  5.     var result = document.getElementById('UnprotectedResult');
  6.  
  7.     var initialresult = parseInt(outgoings.value)- parseInt(alreadyprotected.value);
  8.     initialresult /= 100;
  9.     initialresult = Math.round(initialresult);
  10.     initialresult *= 100;
  11.     result.value = initialresult;
  12.  
  13.  }
  14.  
  15.  
This needs to always round down, rather than your regular type rounding: is this possible in a quick way rather than simply extending the above?

Many thanks in advance
