Round vector values to next highest dimensions?

Is there a command (or a way to use the round command) that will take a vector of difference lengths in inches and round each value to the next highest inch? I've attached a sample MathCAD 14 worksheet.

The problem is, that a lot of Mathcad functions won't accept units, so you have to get rid of them and add them later again. This applies to round and also to ceil, floor and trunc.

For completeness sake:

As Valery just pointed out in another thread http://communities.ptc.com/message/207043#207043, Mathcad has built in functions Round() and Ceil(), etc. which take care of the units. I wasn't aware of that.
