I don't have such a UDF, no. But I would strongly recommend storing the quantities as fixed-point numbers (decimal type in SQL) rather than floating-point if you plan on doing this. For your purposes, you're probably fine with 2-4 decimal places anyway, and it should make the conversion easier/more reliable. (Floating point imprecision is a right pain.)
