I have been trying to figure out an effective way to input an If-function into another formula and what I have seen online doesn't help me. I am new to this type of usage in Excel. Portion of the formula I want to replace with the IF-Function is highlighted. Essentially if F5 is 1, the nper = 12, and if 2 than 24, and if 3 then 36.
What I have found online is this =IF(F6>21,"Text 1",IF(E9<5,"Text 3","Text 2")) but I can't figure out how to get this formula to work with what I want in the accompanying picture. Please note that I left that code as I found it online, for the sake of not making any assumptions. Also I am not adverse to using a different method such as vlookup.
Thank-you!
It looks like you want to calculate the number of monthly periods based on the number of years in the F column.
Rather than using a vlookup or nested IF statements, just calculate the number of months by multiplying the number of years by 12:
=PMT($B$22,F5*12,E5,0)

I apologize if the title is a bit vague. I am trying to create a calculator that takes into account how much "scrap" I have, how much is needed to resmelt it, and how many bars recieved.
Currently using:
(=if((amtOwned/qtyToSmelt)<1,,rounddown((amtOwned/qtyToSmelt)*barsMade))
Table and Formula
The problem I am having is you MUST have the QTY to Smelt. But the value returned includes partial quantities.
Ex. 125 Bottle Caps should equal 4 Bars total. Yet it returns 5.
How can i make the formula only account for increments of the bars recieved?
Thank you for any help, again i apologize if this isn't that clear. Im not exactly sure how to express my need in this situation.
I have tried messing around with the syntax and where every argument sits, even this formula is the most recent iteration of what i thought would be needed.
EDIT: I have tried using the TRUNC function and this seems to be working as I need it to. The formula now is:
=TRUNC((AMTowned/AMTneeded),0)*barsRecieved
=TRUNC((136/50),0)*2 This is returning 2 bars instead of 3. Which is exactly what I need.
It appears this is working by truncating the number first then multiplying it. So, 1.5 becomes 1 before being multiplied. This was my guess after doing more research. I had been searching for a while before I posted this but am glad to have learned what I have in searching for this.
There is a tool for auditing formulas. To see it go to Formulas > Evaluate Formula.
So here is you formula =IF((E3/C3)<1,,ROUNDDOWN((E3/C3)*D3,0))
Have you tried the calculation on your regular calculator? To me it is doing what you would expect. (125/50)*2 = 5
So this is the simplified question I broke down from a former question I had here: Excel help on combination of Index - match and sumifs? .
For this one, I have Table1 (the black-gray one) with two or more columns for adjustments for various order numbers. See this image below:
What I want to achieve is to have total adjustments for those order numbers that contain the numbers in Total Adjustment column in the blue table, each of which will depend on the cell beside it.
Example: Order number 17051 has two products: 17051A (Apple) and 17051B (Orange).
Now what I want to achieve in cell C10 is the sum of adjustment for both 17051A and 17051B, which will be: Apple Adjustment (5000) + Orange Adjustment (4500) = 9500.
The formula I used below (and in the image) kept giving me error messages, and this happens even before I add the adjustment for Orange.
=SUMIF(Text(LEFT(Table1[Order Number],5),"00000"),text(B10,"00000"),Table1[Apple Adjustment])
I have spent the whole day looking for a solution for this and didn’t even come close to find any. Any suggestion is appreciated.
Assuming your headers always have the text "adjustment" in them, you could use:
=SUMPRODUCT((LEFT($B$4:$B$7,5)=B10&"")*(RIGHT($C$3:$F$3,10)="adjustment")*$C$4:$F$7)
In C10 you could add two sumproducts. This assumes that products are always 5 numbers long at the start. If not swop the 5 to use the length of the product reference part you are matching on.
=SUMPRODUCT(--(1*LEFT($B$4:$B$7,5)=$B10),$D$4:$D$7)+SUMPRODUCT(--(1*LEFT($B$4:$B$7,5)=$B10),$F$4:$F$7)
Which with table syntax is:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(1*LEFT(Table1[Order Number],5)=$B10),Table1[Apple Adjustment])+SUMPRODUCT(--(1*LEFT(Table1[Order Number],5)=$B10),Table1[Orange Adjustment])
Using LEN
=SUMPRODUCT(--(1*LEFT(Table1[Order Number],LEN($B10))=$B10),Table1[Apple Adjustment])+SUMPRODUCT(--(1*LEFT(Table1[Order Number],LEN($B10))=$B10),Table1[Orange Adjustment])
I am multiplying by 1 to ensure Left, 5 becomes numeric.
Say I have the dataset below, what is the most efficient formula to fill the cells in column D, where the number of patients alive are calculated?
Example data set in excel
The way it should calculate is:
month 1: 8*100% = 8
Month 2: 8*80%+6*100% = 12.4
Month 3: 8*75%+6*80%+9*100% = 19.8
...
Month 10: etc.
The problem that I have is that which each row, the formula becomes longer. It is feasible to just manually enter the formulas for small datasets, but as datasets become larger, this task becomes unfeasible.
I have been able to use VBA to code the survival of the number of new patients column (C). But then I would have to rerun the VBA code as soon as I change a single value in that column.
I have a feeling it should be possible with some combination of the INDEX function in excel, I just haven't been able to figure it out.
Who can help me out here?
Kind regards,
Sander
If moving the data a bit is allowed at least for the calculation, you could do something like this:
=SUMPRODUCT($F$11:$F$20,B2:B11)
It uses a reversed list of your current list of new patients. That list is created with (formula obtained from this site):
=INDEX($C$11:$C$20,COUNTA($C$11:$C$20)+ROW($C$11:$C$20)-ROW())
Result:
The added space is necessary for the formula to work (so that it gets 0% for patients not present yet).
Or one where you don't have to leave spaces (everything from above is reversed however):
=SUMPRODUCT($C$2:$C$11,G11:G20)
I have been researching this and I have found several different iterations of the formula, but I just can't get mine to work. I am trying to create an if/and formula in a calculated field. I am trying to show data based on three criteria.
If the create date is greater than month 2 and less than month 8 then OCTOBER 1
If the account change type is Immediate: Error or Business Case then MONTH([CreateDate])+1 and 1.
Otherwise MARCH 1
This is the formula I have:
=IF(AND([Created]>2,[Created]<8),"OCTOBER 1",IF([Account Change Type]="Immediate: Error or Business Case"),"ASAP","MARCH 1"))
These are the forums I have looked at and still can't get it:

The simple answer that pops to mind is that you have an extra parentheses at the end of that formula. If you want to test these formula syntax wise, just put them in Excel.
If you're having another issue beyond that, can you provide an error or specific symptom of some sort?
I keep a running avg of kids grades in Excel over a 2 week period. The way i have the code now
AVERAGE(OFFSET('1'!E4,COUNTA('1'!D:D)-29,):OFFSET('1'!E4,COUNTA('1'!D:D),))
it returns an error if i don't have 2 weeks of data. I found a way around this by doing this
=IFERROR(AVERAGE(OFFSET('1'!E4,COUNTA('1'!D:D)-29,):OFFSET('1'!E4,COUNTA('1'!D:D),)),IFERROR(AVERAGE(OFFSET('1'!E4,COUNTA('1'!D:D)-28,):OFFSET('1'!E4,COUNTA('1'!D:D),)),IFERROR(AVERAGE(OFFSET('1'!E4,COUNTA('1'!D:D)-27,....
Im Sure there is a better way to do this any help would be appreciated.
As pointed out in the comments - it's difficult to give a definitive answer without some more knowledge - it's not easy to tell, for instance, where the numeric data starts (E4 or E5)?
Firstly you can simplify your original formula which appears to AVERAGE the last 30 rows of data (not sure how 30 rows equates to 2 weeks of data) - you can do that with just:
=AVERAGE(OFFSET('1'!E4,COUNTA('1'!D:D)-29,0,30))
Now I assume the error comes about when COUNTA('1'!D:D) is < 29 so you can simply add an If function which AVERAGES all the data if that function returns a number < 29, i.e.
=IF(COUNTA('1'!D:D)<29,AVERAGE('1'!E4:E33),AVERAGE(OFFSET('1'!E4,COUNTA('1'!D:D)-29,0,30)))
That formula may need some small adjustments to cater for the specifics of your layout but the general approach is valid
