Calculating Percentiles
Dec 5, 2008For my Intro to Engineering class, I collected data of two filter media in the laboratory. The data included the % of the media which passed through a sieve and the sieve openings. For use in a certain equation, I need the opening size at the 10th, 30th, 50th, 70th and 90th percentiles. I've tried searching on the Microsoft website but I don't think the PERCENTILE function will work correctly with the given data. I also tried using the slope between points to find the opening sizes at the percentiles mentioned, but doing so yielded different results from my professor's. Attached is the data I collected organized in tables and graphs of the data. I have also attached a pdf file of an example which my professor has given us.

Apr 12, 2014What I need is the following: I select a range of numbers and for this range I want to calculate the 1/3th and 2/3th percentile, and these should come in two cells that I can easily change in the vba code.
Some formula in which I can give two inputs: first the range of which it has to calculate the 1/3th and 2/3th percentile and a second input which is just a number and than the vba should say whether that second input is in the first range (between 0 and the 1/3th percentile value) or in the second range (between 1/3th and 2/3th percentile values) or third range (between2/3th percentile value and highest value).

Calculating Cells Used Based On Another Cells Data
Mar 6, 2008I have a bit of an odd issue I need to solve. I use an Excel spreadsheet to track daily income for the store over a months' period. I have each day set to give me a rough estimate of profitability for that day. I also want to create a cell that tells me how much we've made so far, based on the number of business days so far in the current month. For example:
Day 1, $1500, $800 in expenses (monthly expenses averaged over the month, plus labor costs for the day), so a total of $700 profit.
Day 2, $1700, $749 in expenses (same as before), so a total of $951 profit.
The formula I'm using to calculate that isn't an issue, but I have the same formula for every single day, and each day has it's own cell with the estimated profitability for that particular day. In two other cells, I put the total number of business days in that month (in this case, 26), and in another cell I put the current number of business days we've had this month (in this case, 4), which is used partially to calculate the other cells. I want to use them to create another cell to contain the estimated profitability based solely on the number of business days out of the month we've had.
So E3 through E33 contain the individual days, I want to calculate - since we've only had 4 business days - what E3 through E7 would total. When I change it to 5 business days, i want it to calculate E3 through E8. So if we've had 4 business days, it only calculates the totals from the first 4 cells, if 5 business days, then the first 5 cells, etc, etc.
I can sort of picture it in my head, but I can't seem to find the necessary equation for it. It may require a macro, but I'd rather use a formula if possible. I'm not a big fan of macros.
Calculating Value, Based On Time
Apr 27, 2004I am trying to write what I believe is a fairly simple set of calculations to determine non-qualified stock option values. Before this digresses into a discussion of the merits of Black-Sholes methodology, I must tell you that this is a "101" type sheet. I'm not an economist.
The deal is that my sister (for whom I'm constructing this worksheet), gets employer stock options which vest at different intervals.
In the past year, she's gotten some options that vest in two, four, and five year increments. I'm using Excel 2002, with the analysis toolpak, and stock pricing add-in from MS.
Have today's date, date of option grant, and can easily compute time (in years) until options are fully vested.
The trick is that options with a 2-year vesting period are 50% excerciseable in one year, 100% in two.
Four-year options are excerciseable 25% per year for 4 years; 5-year are 20% for 5 years, etc.
I'm trying to write a single date-driven formula to take each grant (individually), and divide it by the appropriate divisor (based on the current date), to figure out the current value.
I can't seem to quite figure it out how to write a formula which can handle:
Shares Strike Price Date of Grant Years Until Vested Value
100 26.57 1/4/2003 5
245 45.67 2/6/2001 4
Value should equal =
(if today's price is grater than Strike Price)
(Current Price * (Shares * (% vested which is based on "date of grant" + "years until vested")) )
-
(Strike Price * Shares * (% vested which is based on "date of grant" + "years until vested") )
how the math to make the "% vested multiplier" work...
Calculating Cost Based On Several Factors
Jan 7, 2009i. I currently have a spreadsheet which is used to forecast resource cost for a project. The forecasted cost is calculated on a few factors - rate, allocation, contract start and end date, and expected days worked per month. One of the mods actually helped me out with this a few weeks ago.
I now have been told that there is a possibility that certain resource costs may change in the new year and that will need to be reflected in the sheet whilst keeping the historic information.
For example - XXX has a rate of £200 p/d, allocation is 1, working 18.83 days p/m and is working from 01/01/09 to 01/06/09. The current formula will work out his cost per month until contract end. Now say his rate will be changed to £150 p/d from the 01/03 and all other info remains the same, I need the sheet to calculate his revised cost from 01/03 onwards and not change the calculation previous to that month.
Now Ive actually managed to figure that part out myself by adding in two columns (over-ride rate and over-ride date) using a nested IF statement. The only problem is that if the new rate starts mid month then it will still calcuate the original amount for the full month and the revised amount from the next month.
Edit - Also, could someone advise as to how do I remove my old attachments as I have almost used up my allocation.
Calculating A Discount Based On Certain Rules
Feb 11, 2009I'm looking for assistance with working out the following formula. I live on an apartment complex in Marbella Spain and we pay Monthly Community Fees of say $100.
We want to calculate a penalty amount for late payers of say 30% of the monthly fee due for non payers? So for instance if the monthly amount due in Cell D8 = 100 and the actual amount received in cell E8 shows 0 or then increase any figure due for the following month in Cell F8 should increase by 30% ($ 130) in the following month. and so on
I use Excel ver 2003. Trust my query is reasonably clear?
Calculating Score Based On Criteria
Mar 16, 2009I have a spreadsheet which calculates the score for a particular item.

How do I automate this task via a formula ?
Calculating Average Based On Other Criteria?
Feb 27, 2012I have a series of numbers in the column AB56 going downwards and in AC56 going downwards their respective counts in a data-set.
What I would like to do is find the average of the min and max, the min and max for the average calculation are both determined by looking at the count column, isolating the max, isolating the min, provided they both have a count greater than zero then averaging both results.
eg.
0.1562818960
0.1558039690
0.1553260431
0.1548481172
0.15437019 2
0.1538922643
0.1534143384
0.1529364124
[code].....
In this calculation the MAX is 0.155326043 because it has a count greater than zero, the MIN would be 0.138120697 as it has a count greater than zero, the average of both would simply be 0.1467. i.e. Average(0.155326043,0.138120697)
Calculating Price Based On Profit
Jun 26, 2012I'm using a spread sheet to determine what I should charge customers. I want to make at least $300 profit on every job. If my profit is not at least $300 then I must up my price until profit reaches $300. Currently I'm manually adding a percentage (Factor) to the original price until I reach $300 profit. In the image below:
A is the original price
B is the factor by which I multiply the original price to increase it
C is the new figure which is reached after multiplying (1+B2)*A2
D is the costs related to that job (I enter these manually on a separate sheet within the workbook)
E if the profit (C-D)
I use a factor in B because when I increase the price, then I have to increase several parts of the job by the same percentage so I multiply each part by this factor to increase the price of each by the same percentage.
Now what I would like to do is if E2.
Calculating Due Dates Based On Certain Criteria?
Oct 26, 2012I have a column CF which has to calculate the due date based on start date in column X and end date in column Y.
This is achievable however; I have dropdown columns in CE which has below option.
Below is the requirement.
If user select "Should Pay" from drop down in column CE, then in column CF the due date has to be Start date + 7 days
If user selects "Not to Pay" from drop down in column CE, then in column CF the due date has to be N/A or Blank
If user selects "Has Time to Pay" from drop down in column CE, then in column CF the due date has to be Start date + 9 days
If user selects "Misc" from drop down in column CE, then in column CF the due date has to be (End date - Start Date)/8+7
if this can be attainable either via formula or VBA.
Calculating Average Based On A Condition
Jul 27, 2007I need to calculate the average of values in a particular column if some other column contains a particular text. For e.g. I would like to calculate average age of all the people who belong to the Comapny "XYZ". Which means that I have two columns here one is "Age" and the other one is "Company". So For all the people who belong to the company "XYZ", I need to calculate average age.
Company Age
XYZ 24
ABC 26
ABC 34
XYZ 30
My average should be (30+24)/2 = 27.
Calculating Charges Based On Stepped Rates?
Jun 20, 2014Never tried complicated formulas in Access and at a bit of a loss... What I am trying to do is calculate a utility bill based on stepped rated.
For example:
Usage up to the first 500KHW is billed at .067 per KWH
Usage after the first 500KWH from 501 to 999 is billed at .044 per KWH
Usage from 1000 up is billed at .0318
So if my usage was 1200 KWH...
((500 x .067)+(500 x .044)+(200 x .0318)) = 61.86
I was assuming it would require an complex "if" function to split the 1200 into steps and then calculate charges per step?
Calculating Number Based On Multiple Variables?
Jan 24, 2014What I am trying to do is calculate a particular charge based on two main variables the city and weight chosen (each of which will correspond to a particular value) .I have these cities and weights which correspond to a particular price per 100kg when two are selected
My excel data is set up like this
(A).....................(b)......................(c)..................(d)........................(e).........................(F)
.......................Weight..................0-999Kg.............1000-1999kg..........2000-4999kg..........5000-9999kg
1. City
2. Toronto....................................$5.50..................$4.00..................$3.75..................$3.50
3. Winnipeg....................................$3.20..................$3.75..................$3.6..................$3.21
4. Saskatoon..................................$5.4..................$5.2..................$4.90....................$4.70
(I added a,b,c,d and 1,2,3,4 for reference when explaining the formula)
I have a separate row where I am able to enter a weight in one column (A24) and and choose the city from a list in the second column (B24). I need the next column (C24) to display the dollar charge per 100kg from my data that corresponds to the city I have chosen and the weight entered. I am trying to figure out a formula for C24 that allows for instance $5.50 to be displayed when I type in 800kg for A24 and choose Toronto from a drop down list in B24. This row will look like this for reference:
..................A............................ B..............................C.
..................Weight..................City..................Charge per 100kg
24...............800..................Toronto..................$5.50
Calculating Percentage Based On Dynamic Cells
Dec 15, 2008I need to calculate the percentage based on self populating score. however I want excel/formula to ignore any cells which has "NA" in it so that it calculates the percentage based only on the cells having Numbers.
Now these Cells which contain Numbers might or might not contain numbers based on the "IF" function which decides wether the cell will have numbers or will remain "blank" or have "NA". To understand better please have a look at the enclosed sample (that would explain my need better)

Calculating Total Based On Cell Contents
Mar 14, 2009I'd like excel to calculate 3 totals for me based on the colour and value on a worksheet.
Basically, I work for various people and they pay at different rates per hour.
I currently have a spreadsheet with their names, times, and rates (see attached for example), but I calculate the amounts paid and due manually.
If possible I would now like excel to do it.
To explain further, 'J' gives me $10 per hour, and 'V' gives me $5 per hour.
Cells shown in red show work done but not paid for.
Cells shown in green show work done and paid for.
I'd like excel to automatically create totals as shown on the spreadsheet, namely:
Total due: xxxx
Total paid: xxxx
Total outstanding: xxxx
At any time during the month I can be asked to take on more work - I would then enter the code into the spreadsheet for the hours requested...and I'd like the totals to be update automatically.

Calculating A Total, Based On Values In Other Cells
May 6, 2009Using Excel 2002. Here's my problem.
Column A contains the month (as text)
Column C contains an employee name.
Column O contains a reason for absence.
Column K is the number of hours of absence.
The employee's name may appear several times in the worksheet. What I want to do is count the number of hours per type of absence.
E.g. If A=MAY and C=BOB and O=SICK then total hours from all instance of K = X.
This will be used on a seperate worksheet where the name C will be referenced from a validation list.
Calculating Adjusted Factor Based On Variable Values
Feb 7, 2014Here is a table with values from Factor1 to Factor 5. Underneath that, for a specific index, I can mark Y or N for factor values. For instance, for index 1, Factor1 and 2 is marked as Y. The goal is to calculate total factor based on variable and factor values. In this case, variable value is 6, factor 1 =1 and factor 2=1.25). So Total factor = 6*1.25*1.5 = 11.25. If all factor values are marked as N, then total factor = variable value (Example is for Index 3)
How this can be implemented. I tried using COUNT function to count the total number of Y but that works only if all factors have same values.

Calculating Amount Owed Based On Current Date
Sep 1, 2013I'm having trouble with a complex Excel formula. I'm calculating child support owed based on the current date coupled with future child support owed. My columns are as follows:
Debt / Future Amount Owed / Monthly Payment / Total Amount Paid
10,148.72 / 83312 / 508 / 1000
On the first of each new month, the Future Amount Owed should decrease by 508. Altering the Total Amount Paid should decrease the Debt column. Progressing another month without altering the Total Amount Paid column should add 508 to the Debt column while subtracting 508 from the Future Amount Owed column.
Calculating Hours Worked Based On Elapsed Time Over 24H
