Excel formula with Multiple text and a number condition - excel

I am trying to find an average of 1 column if the number in the column is greater than 0 and another column is either a C or a P. I was trying to use the Averageifs formula but its is not giving the correct information.
Here is a sample of the table with some dummy data:
Column G Column H
Type (L,S,C,P) Proft/Loss
C $153.00
L $(25.00)
P $(10.00)
S $15.00
C $20.00
L $100.00
P $(50.00)
S $(150.00)
C $(50.00)
P $(52.00)
L $75.00
S $(75.00)
C $50.00
P $75.00
L $150.00
S $(10.00)
These are the formulas I have tried:
=AVERAGE(AVERAGEIFS($H$29:$H$1000,$G$29:$G$1000,({"C","P"}),$H$29:$H$1000,">0"))
=AVERAGEIFS($H$29:$H$1000,$G$29:$G$1000,({"C","P"}),$H$29:$H$1000,">0")
=AVERAGE(IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH($G$29:$G$1000, {"C","P"},">0")), $H$29:$H$1000))
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

the problem is that the first will return two numbers; one for the C and one for the P and then average the two, which gives too much weight to p in your data set.
The second will only do the first array value
The third will need some work to the MATCH for two criteria and is entered as an array formula with Ctrl-Shift-Enter.
I propose:
=SUM(SUMIFS(H:H,G:G,({"C","P"}),H:H,">0"))/SUM(COUNTIFS(G:G,({"C","P"}),H:H,">0"))

Here's another solution:
=AVERAGE(IF(A2:A17="C",IF(B2:B17>0,B2:B17,"NO"),IF(A2:A17="P",IF(B2:B17>0,B2:B17,"NO"),"NO")))
Hope that helps.

Formula to get crossed values

I am trying to get values from other column, based on some logic, crossed logic, but I didn't get any result with the only thing I know: IF or VLOOKUP.
The table is in this way:
So basically there are groups divided by blank row, and in column D I want to add the value from column B, but according with other letter that the one from the row ( C is from Credit, D is from Debtor). So in first D5 I have C on the same row in A5, so I need to take value from D, which is 2, according to B6.
So sorry if this question is too easy or stupid, but I don't know much about excel formulas, other that the basic one.
I'd say the fastest way with formula takes two columns. The first one (let's say column C) will use this formula to define the blocks:
=IF(A5="",C4+1,IFERROR(C4+0,0))
It's meant for cell C5.
The second column will give back the actual result:
=SUMIFS(B:B,A:A,IF(A5="C","D",IF(A5="D","C","")),C:C,C5)
It's meant for cell D5.
Place them accordingly and drag them down to cover your list.
Then again: if you are looking just for the number and not for its sum (and therefore assuming all numbers are equal for each letter in each block), just use this one in cell D5 instead of the previous one:
=SUMIFS(B:B,A:A,IF(A5="C","D",IF(A5="D","C","")),C:C,C5)/COUNTIFS(A:A,IF(A5="C","D",IF(A5="D","C","")),C:C,C5)
Now if you were to use only IF and VLOOKUP functions, a possible solution could be this one:
A
B
C
D
E
F
G

Return Multiple Unique Matches in Excel without Array Formula

Given an Excel table of shape
Col. A Col B Col. C Col. D Col. E
x 2 x 2 3
x 3 y 7
y 7 z -5
x 2
z -5
I want to return the first unique hit in Column B for argument "x" in Column D,
the second unique hit in Column B for argument "x" in Column E and so forth.
The formula I'm currently using in cell D1 for this is
{=IFERROR(INDEX($B$1:$B$5,MATCH(0,COUNTIF($C1:C1,$B$1:$B$5)+($A$1:$A$5<>$C1),0)),"")}
which is working.
The problem I'm having is that since this is an array formula and since I'm analyzing a decent amount of data computation time for my sheet is too high.
Is there an alternative for this functionality avoiding an array formula?
Thanks!
Haven't got time to test this properly, but if you have Excel 365 you can use a single formula per row and it may be faster:
=TRANSPOSE(UNIQUE(FILTER(B1:B10,A1:A10=C1)))
in D1.
EDIT
To pull the formula down, you need static references as OP has pointed out. Probably should check for empty cells in column C as well, so formula becomes:
=IF(C1="","",TRANSPOSE(UNIQUE(FILTER(B$1:B$10,A$1:A$10=C1))))

Ignore text values in subtotal function

Excel-Sheet:
A B C D E
1 1.200
2 Product A 500
3 Product B 400
4 Product C OK
5 Product D #NA
6 Product E 300
7
8
In the above table I have list of products in Column A and some data about the products in Column B.
In Cell B1 I want to calculated the subtotal of Column B using =SUBTOTAL(9,B2:B6).
However, now I have the issue that Column B not only consists of numbers.
It can also have the data type text (OK, NA). Therefore, the result in Cell B1 currently is #NA.
Is there any kind of formula that I could use so only the number data is considered and the result is 1.200 as in the table above?
Please note:
This function =AGGREGATE(9,6,B2:B6) won't help me because I want to filter the list later on so I need to go with the SUBTOTAL.
Use 7 as the second criterion in AGGREGATE instead of 6 as it will also exclude hidden rows:
=AGGREGATE(9,7,B2:B6)
You can solve this, combining the Excel worksheet functions =Value() and =IfERROR():
The function =Value() gives the value of a number, and in case of text it gives an error.
=IfError() can be used to give 0 in that case.
So, imagine you have following situation:
Column A Column B Column C
1 =Value(A1) =IfError(B1;0)
3.5 =Value(A2) =IfError(B2;0)
AB =Value(A3) =IfError(B3;0)
abc10 =Value(A4) =IfError(B4;0)
This gives following results:
Column A Column B Column C
1 1 1
3.5 3.5 3.5
AB #Value 0
abc10 #Value 0
You can simply take the sum of column C.
So this is based on the summary in B1.
=SUM(IF(ISERROR(B2:B6),"",B2:B6))
You need to push Ctrl+Shft+Enter for this to work.
Hope it helps.

How do I return value in the cell to the right

I think I need a vlookup formula for what I want to do but I am not sure how to word it.
I want excel to return the supplier name to the right of the relevant price, so I want to look up the prices in column A using the range C:J and return the supplier to the right of the corresponding value. See below:
A B C D E F G H I J
R 65.80 R 53.52 Bi-Rite R 7.40 Makro R 12.25 Usavesa R 32.88 Silverlake
TIA
If your required price is in say A6, then something like the following might suit:
=INDEX(1:1,MATCH(A6,1:1,0)+1)

SUMIF a cell on the same row, in a certain column, contains a specific text

I'm trying to sum all transactions on a spreadsheet of my bank statement. Let's say I have the following under columns B-F:
B C D E F G
Date Type Transaction Value Balance ???
row 4 23/05/14 BAC Bank transfer A 1103.55 637.03
row 5 23/05/14 POS Pizza purchase 10.00 627.03
row 6 23/05/14 POS Coffee purchase 10.00 627.03
I'd like to make a new cell on column G which sums all values in column E that are on rows containing "POS" in column C. Is this possible?
Yes and I believe the simplest way is by using SUMIF:
=SUMIF(C:C, "POS", E:E)
In other words, sum E:E if C:C equals "POS".
=SUM(IF(C4:C6="POS",1,0)*E4:E6) is one way. Expand the ranges to taste.
Note this is an array formula: you need to press Ctrl + Shift + Return once you're done editing.
