Find Average When Only One Positive Number Is Available
Jun 29, 2006
I am trying to find a formula that works out the average of the figures in column K.....my problem is that so far in column K there is only one positive number (11)- the rest of the cells are DIV/0 so the average is showing as DIV/0. This is incorrect as the average is really 11 - how can I sort this out with a formula?

I have a column of numbers that are derived with a formula. I need to Average only the ones that either have a Positive or Negative number, ignoring blanks or zero.
I have tried Search but couldn't find anything that address both blank and zero.
Sheet2
K610.00%624.76%632.53%6418.75%65666.38%6768-4.00%6970-5.84%710.86%
Excel tables to the web : [URL] .......
With this small sample, the answer should be 3.35% according to Excel when I choose just those neg and pos cells.

We are trying to track the average star values of reviews posted to our clients accounts. Here is an example of the spreadsheet we have set up:
Company Name
Review 1
Review 2
Review 3
Review 4
Review 5
Company 1
[CTY] 4 Stars review content
[ISP] 5 stars review content
[GGL] 4 stars review content
[CTY] 3 stars review content
[YELP]5stars review content
In this example, we use the initial [ ] to track which site the review was posted on ex: [CTY] means city search, [GGL] means google, etc.
We want to be able to track the average star value on each site. So the formula for City Search would scroll across the row of reviews, pick out reviews 1 and 4 and then find the first number in each and average them. The result in this case would be 3.5
From the research we have done so far, this looks like it will require a complex array formula. How to make this formula? Is this even possible what we are trying to do?

I have a column which is populated with profits and losses from a trading account. Here is an example:
Column I
400
200
-100
-150
-50
What I want to do is average all the profits, and average all the losses so I have two numbers - the average winner and the average loser. Continuing with the example from the 5 trades above, the average winner is 300 and the average loser is -100. How can I do this in excel?

Please find the attached MS Excel 2010 file <average set.xlsx>.
There is set of positive set & negative set of values available in the Column A. The values are plotted against Column A in Column B. Light green are positive sets and light yellow are negative sets.
Now I want to calculate the average for the positive set & negative set of values as shown in light majenta in the cells F4:F9. Also all majenta cells to be plotted by formula.
The Column H and Column I also same as like above , but here negative set of numbers starts first.

I go negative in one column I want it to show up in the next column as a positive number because when I add my income and subtract my bills and the negative from last month to get the what cash I'll have left it screws up because negative subtract a negative is a positive. So how do i get the sum of say B9 to from -$5.00 to +$5.00 into C4 so when i subtract C4 From my income it wont add to it.

I have a series that comprises of two rows:
Row 1 is date
Row 2 are values
I am trying to find a formula where I can identify where in row two the value chages from positive to negative, and where it changes from positive to negative it should return the date the value changes from positive to negative ie:
ROW 1 08-Jan 09-Jan 10-Jan
ROW 2 1111 22222 -33333
The formula should identify that in row 2 the negative value occurs at -33333 and at the 10th of January.

I need a formula that will look at a row (say row 1) starting in column F. When the first positive value appears in the row, the formula will then sum that value and the next 11 columns in the same row. So for example, starting in row 1 column F - here is an example list of values
0 0 0 0 3 4 3 2 0 4 8 7 9 0 9 0 6 4 2 2 0 8 7
The total would be 49 (start summing at the first 3 (which would be column J)and finish with the 0 (which would be column U))
Lets assume the formula is in column AZ, row 1 and I then need to drag it down

I have a 'rota' worksheet that includes staff names and their rostered hours on all dates through the month.
On each date of the month I need excel to find that date in column A and then look across the row to find any cells that aren't blank. When the cell has a value I need the name above it in row 1 and the value (number of hours) itself to copy across to a 'daily activities' sheet. The date is autopopulating on this sheet in cell H5.
The name needs to drop into column A and the hours worked into column B. I would like the first cell to be A9 and then down from there with no spaces in between names. The other info on the sheet will then complete itself using the name that has been dropped in using VLookup.
I'm presuming I can use a macro to do this for me but am really struggling where to start with it, and how to ignore blank cells as they will change cells on a monthly basis.

I am trying to somehow use multiple IF functions. I was able to use one IF function to disply '--' in a cell if a particular formula = 0. However I ran into a problem when negative values were displayed. I wanted the value to be a positive number. I thought I could use another IF function to multiply the formulas contents by -1 if it were <0, but I keep getting a #VALUE error in my cells. Is there a way I can have multiple conditions?

In one column, I have a formula that will produce a positive or negative number. If the number is negative, I want it to be automatically transfered to the adjacent cell/column. I don't want a positive number transfered though.

I have a column with zeros, positive numbers, and negative numbers. I need to find the last (bottom) positive number in the column.
Ex:
Column A has -
$50
$0
-$10
$22
$0
-$14
I want a formula or function in B1 that would return $22. However if I add a new row under the -$14 which contains $37, the formula should then return $37.
I have been googling all night, and I can't make this work.

I am wanting to finish a worksheet for my boss. What I have done so far is taken the " forecast" of vehicles shown and used a formula of subtract from "actual" vehicles sold to get "how many we have left to go". what he wants to do is have the "to go" number change from red when a negative to green when it reaches a positive. example:
forecast = 30
actual = 27
to go = -3
that "to go" needs to be without a negative sign but in RED to negate a negative. Is that possible with a formula??

I would like to get random number generator for normal distribution and I’m using:
=NORMINV(RAND(),$B$1,$B$2)
Where B1 is mean (average) and B2 is SD.
This command works, but in the random generating numbers, I’m getting positive and negative numbers (ex. -23,34).
how to change command so I can generate positive only numbers?

I am trying to make a column show the result of a formula as positive number only. Right now the column subtracts two other cells and displays the result. I am trying to make it show all the results, positive or negative as positive.

I am looking for a conditional formula that can be applied to a cell so that when I enter a number with a positive value, it:
1) Converts it to its negative equivalent value.
2) Displays in the value in the cell with parentheses around the number to indicate that the value is negative.
I am trying to do this without having to reference another cell to provide the entry or display the outcome.
