Approach Enables Depreciation To Be Calculated Correctly?

how to calculate debt repayments using this approach.
As shown on the attached file repay issue.xlsx I have an example where a loan is taken out regularly (in the example every 6 years) but repaid over a shorter period (in this example every 3 years).
Using "IF(MOD(ROW" the formula identifies correctly when the loan has to be renewed, and calculates correctly how much needs to be borrowed.
C14 =IF(MOD((ROW(A14)-ROW($A$8)),B$3)=0,B9*C$5
Because Row 14 is six rows below the start (Row 8) which is the interval set by B3, it enters the loan percentage
(C5) of the asset value (B9) into C14.
Problem comes in the following rows. I need the formula to establish how many rows the "active" row is below the last "renewal", then deduct one fraction of the payback period for each row. By sheer coincidence the formula below works on the second row of the datsabase and deducts one third of the loan value because C8 WAS the previous "renewal", and row 9 is one below it:
I cannot "hard wire" the cell references into the formula because the renewal intervals and number of paybacks range from 25 year mortgages paid every year without being renewed to a one year loan on an item renewed every two years
* I have a complex Excel workbook with several worksheets.
* The first worksheet is for raw data, which consists of a single string of data, separated by spaces, to be uploaded to a mainframe. There is no consistent pattern of length of data or strings in between pieces of data, which can vary widely. An example of the data would be something like this:
XXXXX YYYYY NN XXXXXXX
* For testing purposes, I need to come up with a way to parse the data for easier viewing. The current approach is this:
* Take the string and divide it up into individual cells by using the MID function. In the above approach, this would split the data into four (4) different cells.
This is going to be a very complex workbook with data strings that can have 20+ elements in them, and have lots of separate records, etc. While this way should work (if everything is entered perfectly and no data structures ever change, etc.),
I finally found a program that can out put the amounts from a schedule k-1 form. Now comes the hard part, adding logical formulas.
Some of the line items either have an amount to or not. What the pdf2xl program does is output where if the line item has an amount to it, it would add the amount right below the line item. If it doesn't have an amount, it would just add the next line item underneath. Question is what is a good approach to get this to automate, so if line items have an amount, then that amount is known to be line item cell above. Here comes the tricky part as well, some line items have alphabets to them, so a particular line item say 11 would have A-F or line 13 would have A-W. What is a good way to have the line item output the line item + alphabet?
I have several sources of information for client files. the number format includes a reference number and a month, eg 123/11, 456/02. In some cases, the numbers may be presented including the company initials, eg ABC/00123/11. I want to make sure all numbers on all sources are the same as I am using Vlookup and this reference no to copy information from one source to another. Sometimes when I change the format Excel sees this as a date, eg 11/11 is 11-Nov, and in some cases Excel sees a fraction, eg 123/11 is 123 11ths or 123 divided by 11.
I can easily take out the reference no with a find and replace FIND ABC/ replace with . But this often results in a number with leading zeroes, eg ABC/0123/06 will leave 0123/06.
I'm trying to calculate the Depreciation of the fixed asset for some items. I've tried the formulas that came with Excel but i don't know its not working or not give the correct value so I attached a file as an example what I'm trying to have is
1- straight line method along the asset life
2- salvage must be ( 1 )
3- if the purchase date is equal to or before the middle of the month (14-15/02/2004) so the start of depreciation have to start from the beginning of the current month ( Feb) but if the date excess the day 15 ( 16/02/2004) the middle of the month , the the depreciation must start from the next month.
I have a list of items on which I need to calculate the SLD, normally I would just divide the Acq Cost by the Salvage period (5yrs) to calculate the yearly depreciation. However I have been asked to calculate it from the Cap Date, therfore the first year would only be a portion of the year and the final year would also be a potion of the year.
So I'm trying to calculate the depreciation period for an asset with an Acq Cost of £12500 and a Cap Date of 27th July 04 over a 5yr period from that date.
I am in need of a formula to calculate monthly straight-line depreciation assets based on the current month’s days. So, if an asset costs $10,000 and has 15 years of useful life, in June this would calculate 15 divided by 12 divided by 31 times 10,000. I want to put cost in one cell and date in another, for the formula.
BTW, someone is using this formula, =(16736*(1/15)*(6/12))*31/184
I am looking to reassess the useful life of existing fixed assets by one/two years.
For example:-
Original cost $1,727.00 Start Date 30/12/2008 Current End of life 29/12/2013 New End of Life date 29/12/2014 5 year - 20% NBV as at 30/06/2013 $174.12
How can I calculate the new rate, as I can not change the prior financial years depreciation. I am looking for a calculation, to test the assumptions, and see the overall change. This is just one example.
I am attempting to create a capital depreciation schedule that gives us our total operating impact for a given calendar year. I can populate my depreciation based on the purchase month, and fill across the schedule the monthly depreciation cost, however, I'm not sure how to stop the depreciation after the item has depreciated fully (say after 36 months).
For example, if someone were to select March 2013 in B5, monthly depreciation should begin in E5 and spread across ONLY 36 months. If they were to select April 2013, the depreciation would begin in F5 and extend ONLY 36 months.
I think it might be possible to do this with an COUNTIF function, but it is not working for me.
I am working on a depreciation schedule in which I want the monthly depreciation of an asset to automatically calculate and, if the asset is fully depreciation, caclulate a zero or the balance to be depreciation (if less than the monthly depreciation). Please see below example. As you can see my asset is fully depreciated at the end of February but because there remains a $0.01, the formula is calculating another month in March and then reversing it in April (less the $0.01). Here's the formula I'm using. What am I doing wrong?
Column H is March, Column C is my monthly depreciation, and column E is my beginning book value:
how to use some form of the saveas dialog within excel without quotes appearing in the filename that is passed to the dialog.
For example:
ChDir ("J:TestFolder")
x = Application.GetSaveAsFilename("Test.xls", "Excel files (*.xl*),*.xl*", 1, "Custom Dialog Title")
The above code displays the saveas dialog form but has "Test.xls" surrounded by quotes. Normally, there would be no quotes around the specified filename.
Is there another way I can do this or will I just have to live with it?
A customer is eligible for a discount if the customer’s 2009 sales are greater than or equal to 200000 OR if the customers First Order was placed in 2012. " If its true it would be yes and if false no"
So far i have in the IF function =IF([@[2009 sales]]>= 200000 ,"Y","N")
How should i insert if the customers OR First Order was placed in 2012?
I have used the Excel program for a number of years to print out "Jukebox Title Strips" for my Jukebox. I have used the same "formula" for cell height, width, etc. during that time.
The outline of the title strips are preprinted and perforated on an 8.5" x 11" sheet. I recently tried to make some new strips and the printing does not line up correctly as it always had done in the past. Now, the titles are not high enough on the top portion of the sheet, and not low enough on the bottom portion of the sheet. So, it is not that I could just raise everything up or lower everything down to line up correctly... it now has to be changed in both directions. Of the 20 title strips on the sheet, the only ones that line up correctly are the two that are halfway down.
I thought that somehow the file had become corrupted, so I made a new template, but I still have the same problem.
Are there any suggestions of what I could do?
In the links below it shows an example of a Title Strip page.
I have three columns expressing death dates (date, month, year). The months and dates are finally sorting correctly within the same year, but I have it set to sort by year first.
The column starts off fine with 1860, goes up to 2013, then starts back at 1884 and goes back up to 2009. I can't find any difference between the two groups: there are some of the same years represented, there are blank month and date cells in both. I have a worksheet with birth dates that sorted fine; the only difference I can find is that birth dates only go up to 1997, but the column is formatted as General, so the turn of the century shouldn't be a problem.
I've tried highlighting the whole thing before sorting as well as selecting one cell as usual. I've also tried formatting the column as Text. I can't think of anything else.
I have a userform with several inputs which are validated, and should the input be invalid an ErrorProcedure is run. This basically displays a message telling the user what is wrong, and it should also be highlighting the text in the relevant field, but for some reason it is not doing that.
Linking two comboboxes. Actually My department consists of 4 divisions and each division contains 3 sections, that is beside Department manager staff and planning group.
In the attached workbook:
- Combobox1 contains All divisions, Department manager staff and planning group) - Combobox2 contains all sections of the selected division in Combobox1.
What I want to do is the following:
In Combox1, I want to hide all records not related to the selected division. In Combox1, I want to hide all records not related to the selected section.
Remarks:
I depend for filtering on the org. code for each division and section.
Fifth and Sixth digits of the first Division's Org. Code are 21
Fifth and Sixth digits of the second Division's Org. Code are 22
Fifth and Sixth digits of the third Division's Org. Code are 23
Fifth and Sixth digits of the third Division's Org. Code are 24
First section's org. code for each division ends with 11
Second Section's org. code for each division ends with 21
Third Section's org. code for each division ends with 31
I have created the following VBA codes to reach the said purposes, the first three ptions in Combobox1 work just fine, but the other options sometimes work fine and other times don't!
Moreover, Combobox 2 is not working at all:
Code: Private Sub ComboBox1_Change() On Error Resume Next Application.ScreenUpdating = False Select Case ComboBox1 Case Is = [AC4].Value
I'm trying to simply reference a cell from another tab in the same workbook. In other words I press "=" and then point to the cell in another tab and I would expect to see that value - however I don't. What I see, as an example, is: ='Nav&SPDiary'!B24 instead of the cell value (which I know exists because I've just pointed to it.
Anyone have ANY idea why all of a sudden it's started to do this? The most annoying thing is it worked fine before and now it doesn't do what I want...
I've got a text box with some commentary in the middle of a spreadsheet. The text looks fine on screen, but when I print, it chops the end off some of the words. Is there a way round this?
I have a userform with a combo box that is populated from a list in a sheet called Clients. The userform is in the same workbook as the Clients sheet. This workbook called "Client List.xls" and is set to be hidden from view. I've created a menu bar icon that loads the "Client List.xls" workbook, and on open runs the initialize procedure. The problem seems to be caused by the "Clients List.xls" being not the active workbook. Is this the case? Is there a way around it? If I unhide the workbook and make it the active workbook, the code works great.
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize() Dim rngClients As Range Dim wsSheet As Worksheet Set wsSheet = Workbooks("Client List.xls").Sheets("Clients") With wsSheet .Range("a65536").End(xlUp).Select .Range(Selection, "A1").Select End With Set rngClients = Selection With cmbClients .RowSource = rngClients.Address .ListIndex = 0 End With
The MsgBox's are merely for debugging. When the code above runs, the first MsgBox I receive states similar to: "vSh 14.238964 vOp 45.23 vCash 1000" The second MsgBox, from after the multiplication, states: "vCash 1000"
For some reason the vCash variable just will not set. At the beginning of the code, I declared each variable as Dim var, meaning as a variant, and whenever I debug by halting during a MsgBox display, each of the variables appear to be the same types: Variant/Double.
I have a command button on my form that unloads it when i am finished. But i have to press it 20 times before it closes. The only line i have in the code is "UnLoad Me"
In cell BQ65, I have 7:00 pm. Next to that, in cell BR65, I have 6:00 am. This should total 11.00 hours, yet with the formula I have in cell BS65, the result is showing up as 13.00 hours, so I'm ending up with two extra hours, which is not good.
I created a data entry form that contains a ComboBox. The ComboBox is based on a range that has three columns and many rows. The purpose is to have the user select an item from the first column, and the other two columns are automatically filled in on the table.
The form works and the data is transferred to the table as it should. The issue is that when you select the ComboBox, it displays the data from all three columns wrapped in two columns. Some of the data is repeated and it looks confusing. How do I have the drop down show only the data in the first column?
