Rounding errors are an important factor in many statistical problems; therefore, statistical analysis of rounded data has recently received growing interest. In this paper we obtain an estimate of accuracy of the sample mean as an estimator of location parameter from rounded data. In contrast to earlier works, where usually asymptotic properties of such estimators have been studied, here the bounds are obtained for finite samples.
