Divide Cost Over A Number Of Years At Different Frequencies?
May 31, 2013
I have 4 columns labelled 1st Year, Frequency, Spread and cost. then I have columns spanning upto 30 they represent years but can be labelled as 1 to 30. My challenge is that I want a formula/function/macro that depending on what I type in the first 4 columns it will populate the remaining 30 columns with either cost or 0.
Example: if I had £9,000 at a frequency of 10, starting on the 5th year with a spread of 3.
The cost represents the cost of each frequent. so in the example I would get £3,000 on each of the 5th,6th and 7th years then another £3,000 on the 15th,16th,17th years and finally another £3,000 on the 25th, 26th and 27th years.
what I want to be able to do is have one function/formula that I can paste across all of the year cells. I currently have a formula that can copy the cost at different frequencies but I cant figure the spread out.
I am wondering if it is possible to create a formula in a cell that will divide whatever number is entered into that cell by a set or fixed number.
ie. I enter the number 9 in the cell and when I press enter, the 9 is instantly divided by 15 and the answer is displayed in the cell where I just typed the 9.
I having a bit of trouble entering numbers in Excel, every time I try to enter a number it seems to divide it by 100. For example : - 1 entered in to a cell becomes 0.01, 100 becomes 1....etc. I've tried formatting the cells and had no luck, tried Tool>Options but not sure where to look.
What I want to do is to divide the sum of those cells with the number of cells with a value > 0 (but all cells must be controlled to check if the value > 0).
In real life it's easy to see that I want to do 14/3 (A1>0, B1>0 and E1>0 equals three cells), but how to write this formula in Excel?
I need to calculate the total cost of outbound calls based on the total duration of outbound calls multiplied by cost per minute. For example, in a given month, the total duration of outbound calls is 261:16:34 being 216 hours, 16 minutes and 34 seconds. I have this figure in cell A1 with the format [h]:mm:ss. I then convert this to minutes in cell B1 by saying B1=A1, but having the format [m], which gives me 15676. In cell C1, I have the cost per minte value of £0.026. But when I apply the formula D1=B1*C1, I get £0.283, when 15676*£0.026 should in fact be £407.58.
my sumproduct function is adding up all items that fall on that date which is fine, but i would love to calculate an average so divide by the number of items that were used in the calculation, is that possible?
I'm trying to create a formula which will allow me to do the following
1. Enter the number of jobs received 2. Divide it by the staff available without ending up with decimals.
As an example. Say I have 60 jobs to be allocated and there are 13 peeps to distribute them to I'm currently getting 4.62. What I need to do is make sure that the jobs are only issued as whole numbers. E.g 5 peeps gets 4 and 8 get 5. I also need to factor in jobs on hand etc but I have already cracked this.
I have attached a sheet as an example, as i am trying to Divide a cell by the number of populated cells in that column e.g column (A) has a table of 16 but only has 13 populated cells in that column, the sum would be something like this =sum(A18/13. Sometimes the column will have less and at times more populated.
I have a 52 (one for each week) page workbook. I am trying to average cell J9 for the entire 52 pages. However the information is not added to the cell until the end of the week so week 30-52 all have 0s and should not be counted in the dividing number. Is there a way to have Excel count the number of cells that have a number (not 0) and divide the sum of the cells but that number.
=(WK1!J9+.....WK52!J9) / (counted number of cells not = 0)
I have two dates, one is a start date the other is todays date, I want to subtract the start date from todays date and show the number of years. But a small twist is I only want to take the years away from each other, ignore day/month. Start 01/05/2000 todays date 01/10/2008 years = 8. Start 10/10/2000 todays date 01/10/2008 years = 7, want it to still show 8 years and ignore the start day/month.
I have a list of over 3000 numbers, many of them duplicates, and would like to write a Macro that lists down the top ten most occurring numbers, in the correct order, with their respective frequencies.
I have a list of people with birthdays that needs to be checked against TODAY to determine how old people are. If I subtract the two fields from one another, I get number of days. But is there a way to convert into years? In my attached example, I'd like column C to display 3 (age for person).
We were working on a set of stock returns using histogram option from the analysis tools. We have not been able to figure out why we have produced two different sets of frequencies over same set of data and one predefined bin range.
Only a few classes present different counts. Can this be due to two different versions of excel were used?
Right now, in a column I would like to display an number (length of employment) based on the hire date.
In one cell the employee's hire date is entered. In a column of other cells the pay period ending date is displayed and in another column the length of employment is displayed.
How would I create a formula in the length of employment cells that would indicate the correct number of years based on the hire date and adjusts when the pay period date passes this hire date?
I have a list of 2000 pieces of inventory. Only the year of purchase is associated with each one, not a specific month or day. I'm trying to apply conditional formatting so that...
Less than 2 years old = green Between 2 and 4 years old = yellow Between 4 and 6 years old = orange More than 6 years old = red
I've been trying =TODAY()-365 (365 replaced by number of days in the above named ranges) but the cell only changes to the color of the most recently applied formatting rule.
I am trying to show the number of years in the userform textbox based from today's date and into the date the eqpt was installed. I stuck with the below code.
Code: Private Sub DTPicker1_Exit(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean) If TextBox1.Text "" Then TextBox2.Text = Year(DTPicker1.Value) - Year(TextBox1.Text) End If End Sub
Where in textbox1 I have this code that activates on userform initialize
Code: If Me.TextBox1.Value = "" Then Me.TextBox1.Value = Format(Date, "dd.mm.yyyy") End If End Sub
Textbox2 is where I want the number of years to appear .
Where: A23 = a date of installation I3 = TODAY() B23 = a number of years
It currently calculates correctly if the number of years correctly if it's older than 1 year. If under one year, it yeilds 0. I would like B23 to show 1 if the current formula yeilds 0.
I want it to yeild a 1 if the current calculation is 0.
I am trying to capture the number of years/quarters are between two dates - giving credit for one day worked into the quarter.
In the attached png file you can see the formula I used for column J. This is the same formula I need to use for Column R but now using 10/1/11 and the date provided in Column R. The formula should be used in Column S "Part B" so that I can determine the number of years between 10/1/11 and the date in Column S.
I need a formula that can automatically populate yearly quarters in separate columns based on a number of years. So if I put in 5 years - excel would populate 20 columns with Quarter 1 - Quarter 2 and so on. If I then change it to 3 years it would only populate 12 columns.
I would like to calculate the number of years and months that have passed since a certain date. Would like it in a number format so I can pickout those who have gone reached 5 year increments during each month.
Such as someone reaching 40 injury free years in June of this year I can let them know.
In a financial environment we have a calculator which uses iteration to allow for a cost being added to loan amount where the cost is based on the total loan amount. Iteration is set to 100 iterations with max change .001
On one PC the first time the calculator is opened it gives a particular (incorrect) result. If the input cells are cleared and the data re-entered, it gives the correct result. This only happens on one particular PC. Is there some other setting , other than the iteration setting, that would cause this?
