Is there a good way of excluding an outlier in an average calculation. In the example below will I exclude 1000 from the average-calculation.
The way to decide excluding-values can either be a percent based on the range or everything that is a higher than a user defined value. It can also be more than one outlier.
A user defined function is OK with me, if it is impossible to use the built-in functions.
I have an array formula that calculates the average of numbers between two dates:
{=AVERAGE(IF('Date Range'!$B:$B>$H$4,IF('Date Range'!$B:$B<=$B$3,'Numbers to Sum'!$C:$C)))*100}
The start date is the day after the date in H4 and the end date is in cell B3. The dates are in column B and the numbers to sum associated with these dates are in column C.
Some of the cells in column C are blank and my formula is taking these blanks into account in calculating the average, while I would prefer not to count them in the calculation.
Can someone please suggest how I could amend the formula above to accommodate this?
=IF($M272="DUPLICATES";SUMIF($D:$D;$D272;F:F);"") and
=IF($M272="DUPLICATES";SUMIF($D:$D;$D272;G:G);"")
it looks up duplicate values in D:D
well It considers #s to be duplicate too and then makes the summation
How can I exclude symbols like that # from the sum???
All I would like is to put the result of this Excel formula in the D column:
=TEXT(B10-C10,"mm:ss")
starting from row 10, provided that both B and C for the row exist (are nonblanks).
I have three columns named "name","start_date" and "end_date"
ex:
Name start_date end_date
AB 9/11/13 10:19 AM ??
CD 9/12/13 11:45 AM ??
All i need to find is,
If Name = AB, i want put start_date+3 days in the end_date column,
similarly for name = CD , start_date+7 days.
But the calculation should exculde weekends(sat and sun).
ex: For AB, start_date = 10/3/13 (3rd oct , thrusday), end_date should be start_date+3 ,so end_date = 10/6/13 but 6th october is sunday so the formula should give end_date as 10/7/13.
I have a list of weeks 1-4 for the fiscal month of January. I have a total column. Each week the appropriate week is updated and the total is updated via formula. The total column is just formulas adding Weeks 1-4 up. I also have an average column with the AVERAGE formula beside the total it that should give me the weekly average for January. However, it's trying to average all the weeks instead of just the weeks that I am on.
For example, Week 1 is 1,000,000. Week 2 is 500,000. Week 3 & 4 are 0 because there is no data in there yet. The AVERAGE formula keeps showing 375,000 instead of 750,000. It's averaging all the weeks and I just want it to average Weeks 1 & 2 right now, but automatically average Weeks 3 & 4 when they are populated.
I have looked on here and I can find the minimum value in my range but what I am trying to do is find the minumum two values. Or rather, i want to find the average of the remaining values.
If the lowest value happens THREE OR MORE times, i still only want to exclude two of them. Same thing goes if the second lowest happens more than once, i only want to exclude at most two values from the avg.
currently, i have 12 values in my list.
example:
list --> one in each cell going across
25, 50, 87, 56, 99, 80, 81, 82, 50, 100, 98, 99
i have the answer as 83.2 doing it by hand. the 25 and one of the 50s would be dropped and the rest would be averaged.
I have a large data table that has autofilters on the headings.
I also have a "Data Summary" Sheet in which I would like to get a conditional average.
Here is my *working* array formula:
=AVERAGE(IF('Data Table'!$C$10:$C$65536=A2,'Data Table'!$BP$10:$BP$65536))
The problem is, it averages all cell values (conditional upon the C column's cell being equal to A2 of course), whereas I only want to average the VISIBLE cells that match the condition.
I have tried using a little VBA with:
Function Vis(Rin As Range) As Range
'Returns the subset of Rin that is visible
Dim Cell As Range
Application.Volatile
Set Vis = Nothing
For Each Cell In Rin
If Not (Cell.EntireRow.Hidden Or Cell.EntireColumn.Hidden) Then
If Vis Is Nothing Then
Set Vis = Cell
Else
Set Vis = Union(Vis, Cell)
End If
End If
Next Cell
End Function
and then trying the formula:
=AVERAGE(IF(Vis('Data Table'!$C$10:$C$65536)=A2,Vis('Data Table'!$BP$10:$BP$65536)))
but it does not work.
I have a scenario where I have a rolling list of sales figures which get added to each week that passes.
I need a formula that will calculate the last 5 weeks of sales and generate an average - which I think I have an idea how to do.
The sticking point is that so as not to skew the averages, when there has been an exceptionally busy or quiet day for a reason we know about I exclude the sales from that week.
This then interferes with the averages as it either takes it as a zero and lowers it or seems to stop formulas from working.
So to summarise:
Average of last 5 weeks sales
Excluding any blanks
Dynamic enough to always pick up the last 5 values in the list (i.e. the last 5 weeks)
excluding zeros and for excluding hidden rows, but can't seem to find a way to do both at the same time, which is what I need to do.
My company has projects that come and go (and are hidden when they are gone) and at times, those projects return 0s because we do not work on them for a short period... so, when I average a column, I need to exclude both situations.
I would like to average a non-continuous range of cells while also excluding all zeros.
I am averaging hours worked and the hours are found in cells:
B2, D2, F2, H2, J2, L2, N2
Some of these cells contain zeros at this time and I do not what to include the zeros in the average.
I have found formulas that would work but they are all with continuous cell ranges.
I use a SQL query to export a subset of data from our server. After manipulating the received data I need to Average one column that has been sorted into a number of blocks consisting of variable numbers of rows and post the result to the ajacent cell. I have tried the Countif worksheet function but am unable to resove the syntax problem.
Sub SumBlock()
Dim First_Row As Long
Dim Last_Row As Long
Dim iTotalRows As Long
Dim iCount As Long
iTotalRows = Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row
First_Row = 2
Do While Last_Row < iTotalRows - 1
Last_Row = ActiveSheet.Range("j" & First_Row).End(xlDown).Row
iCount = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Range("J" & First_Row), ("J " & Last_Row), ">0")
ActiveSheet.Range("K" & Last_Row + 1).Formula = "=Sum(J" & First_Row & ":J" & Last_Row & ")/iCount"
First_Row = Last_Row + 2
Loop
End Sub
Is there a way to exclude outliers when doing a calculation? For example, I am calculating the degradation in sales for a given period. During that period a store may have had an extraordinary sales day that is skewing my slope up/down.

I use VBA with the macro recorder. Now I'd like to programming a code to calculate the average of three cells.
I've done a lot of measurements about 180 but it can be also more. For one test object I've always done three measurements to get then an average.
My values are beginning in cell C2:CXXX, D2:Dxxx and E2:Exxx. For example I'd like to get the average from C2:C4, D2:D4 and E2:E4. The result of C2:C4 I'd like to have in cell H2, the result of D2:D4 in cell I2 and the result of E2:E4 in cell J2. Then the next calculation is C5:C7, D5:D7, E5:E7 and the results in H3, I3 and J3. And so on.
I've attached my excel file, maybe I didn't explained it well. The VBA-Code is for sheet Export.

I get a "#value" error message when I utilize the formula noted below. I seperated it into distinct sections so that it is easier to view. Basically, what the formula is doing is determining whether if two values are the same, then take the absolute difference of the average of other values ,excluding one of the previously noted values, and compare that difference to a different parameter. If the difference does not exceed the parameter, then calculate the difference; otherwise the ending result is zero. Pls. note that the error seems to occur when I input the fifth section into the formula.

I`m working on a compression of a picture. For most of you that probably is pea-nuts, but I really just stopped wearing diapers when it comes to excel. At this point I have a sheet in front of me with 300 rows (length of the picture) and 185 columns (breadth of the picture). The cells are pixels and contain values ranging from 0 to 255.
I now need to do an operation I simply can't figure out. I need to select four cells at once (A1:A2 and B1:B2) and replace A1 by the average of these cells and the other three cells should be emptied during that operation. This operation I should do for the whole sheet. In the end I should see a chart with values in every two cells (A1, A3, A5 ... for the first row) as the other cells will be emptied

I am now a commission based contractor who started earlier this year & I want to be able to calculate my current average weekly income which should fluctuate greatly. I have a spreadsheet that works out what my current to date net income is but can't figure out how to break this down to a weekly avarage. My basic guess is that I want to take the figure provided and divide it by the number of weeks from "stated start date" to the current date (but on a divided by 7 basis?) to get my average weekly net income.
I am sure this is pretty simple for you all so I hope I am not wasting time it's just that if I try figure it out I am using something like WEEKNUM & that will fail after the next new year. -Although it would be better to base it all around the financial year if that can be done? (March 1st - April 31st in NZ)
Im trying to work out a function that will calculate the average accross a 3 column array. Obviously there is but I need to make any cell's with 'Free' give a value of 0.
I need some kind of IF("Free",1) type thing, to run before the average calculation, but I dont know how to put it together to make it work, I thought about a Loop, but then how do I make sure it only goes to the next cell in the selection?
In my Case Else, I have it set to take the Average of the values in cells M8 for all sheets other than the ones listed in my other Cases, same for M9, etc. for each worksheet I have.
The change I want to make is as follows: I'd like it say say if the value in Cell M8 is the same on all sheets then place x value in cell M8 on the active sheet, same for M9, on so on and so forth. Only if the values in Cell M8 for each sheet are not the same then take the average.
