Excel conditional calculation












0















I have a fixed cell value $50. A1



The next column contains a ratio - typically .2 to 2.0. B1



What I want to calculate in an adjoining cell is a value based upon the ratios. C1



rules: if A1 is less than 1.0 multiply A1 by 20% and fill c1.
if A1 is greater than 1.4 multiply by 50% and fill c1



   if A1 is greater than .9 or less than 1.41 C1 + A1
........if A1 is 1.0 to 1.4, multiply A1 by 100% and fill C1


help much appreciated so I can sleep..

  • What's the relevance of B1? It doesn't figure in the calculation.

    A1 is fixed value. So did you actually mean B1 when you say if A1 is less than 1.0 multiply A1 by 20%? Are you actually checking B1 and then including A1 in calculation?

  • whoops; sorry about that - you are right; A1 is fixed, B1 is the variable AND c1 IS THE DERIVED VALUE.

fill C1 with:



=A1*if(B1<1,.2,if(B1>1.4,.5,1))


This is the calcs it does:



B1 < 1, c1=a1*.2



B1 > 1, B1>1.4 then c1=A1*.5 else c1=A1*1
