Formatting a number [message #180206]

Hello

I am looking if there is a better way to write the following if possible.

I would like to display the negative sign in front of the dollar sign
when the unit is negative.

if($units < 0){
$f_units = '-$' . number_format($units * -1);
} else {
$f_units = '$' . number_format($units);
}

I need $units to stay untouched since I am using it in a calculation
later down.

Thanks
Scotty
