Multiply A Number By Percentages And Round So That They Add Upto The Total %
Mar 14, 2009
I want to multiply a number say, 1551 by 5%, 6%, 7%, 8% and 9% and round each result to 0 decimal places. Then the sum of these results (544)should be equal to 35% of 1551 rounded to 0 decimal places (543). How do I create an if function for rounding so that the sum equals 543.
number for item detail level from category standpoint. For example, in the category sheet has total number per category and per month and in the item detail sheet has a list of item number with category. I want a formula to recognize which item belongs to which category then use the total number of category by month to multiply with % of total in column D from Item Detail Spreadsheet.
I am having a calculating issue with a formula I'm trying to use.
What I am trying to do is to multiply the " sum of one cell" with "another cell" for a total.
The following are the cells and data involved.
A12 = 93 C12 = $44.76
A19 = 93 C19 = =sum(C12*0.05) D19 = =sum(A19*C19)
The formulas looked pretty straight forward. My problem is the total I got in D19 was not what I calculated on a calculator. C19 is $2.24 and the above formula gave D19's total as $208.13 but the calculator's total is $208.32.
I can't figure out what is causing the different totals. If there is another formula I should use for this.
I have a spreadsheet where I need to multiply each field in a column by 1.015. However, I need each field to roundup by 2 if the mulitplication is less than 2. For an example, a field of 60 would only increase by .9 to 60.9 when mutliplied by 1.015, but I'd like it to display 62. I have attached the spreadsheet for review.
So, I need to keep adding together all the numbers from cell row 0 upto and including the row number of the cell with the result. The column with the results is to the right of the column with numbers to add. So, if the numbers are positive, to the right of each should be an ever increasing number as a result. In the column with the numbers to add is a function which as a result gives either numbers or blank cells. It sounds simple but it is frustrating me. Why can't I use the function SUMIF with a ROW function inside the condition field? It always gives me 0 as the result. I use excel 2003.
I probably do't understand the SUMIF function but why isn't =SUMIF(A:A;"1>0") equivalent to =SUM(A:A). This too gives the result of 0. Why don't I get an error instead.
Pretty sure this has been asked but have searched the forum to no avail, but I need to extract the numbers from a value which has a letter on the end.
eg. 1000x I need to get out the 1000 or 2p I need the 2
I have sooooo many values ranging in numbers of digits, so just basic left(A1,2) won't work, I'm sure I've seen a search or find function but don't know how to use them!
I've got a list of 20 percentages which can range from 100% to -100%, the total of the 20 percentages should always equals zero but I need excel to give me a total so I can find any calculation errors.
How can I get a total at the bottom of the column?
I've tried SUMIF/SUMIFS, the only way I can get that to work is if I have one cell for >0 and another for
how to roundup and total time using formula? specifically with the format mm:ss:0? i have 3 columns with these formats and would like to add them up but can't seem to get the right formula.
I need a basic formula that will take my start time from my end time and round it up to the next hour with a two hour minimum. I formated my cell to not have decimals and I tried to use round and roundup along with and if/then formula but no luck. If it makes any difference, all times are in 24hr format.
For this example, A1 is the given at 19.875 I am trying to get A2 to net a result of 19.5. A2 is to net that result by searching through cells B1:B14 and finding the nearest equal or lower number. If A1 is less than 13.5 a result of "error" should be generated in A2.
Please see the attached sheet. I have columns B through a lot (B through O in my oversimplified example). In every 7th row in each of these columns there is either a 1 or a blank/zero. I need to multiply that 7th number by the Quantity in column A, to achieve a total (ie the sum of each result of 7th cell*quantity) for each column in the bottom row, labeled "Totals".
In the actual version of my sheet, there are far too many rows to select everything manually. I've been fiddling with combinations of COUNTIF/COUNTA and OFFSET, but I haven't come up with a way to check for the 1 in every 7th row, THEN multiply that 1 by the quantity in column A, THEN add up the results for each column. As you can see, there are 1's elsewhere in the columns that are irrelevant to this particular calculation, so something like LOOKUP would also have to look in every 7th cell and couldn't just look at the column as a whole.
If you can't provide an immediate solution, but can at least point me to a resource that would allow me to devise a way to isolate every 7th row (THAT part is the sticking point), I'll surely post the solution to my own thread with updated keywords if I need it.
Can the data in chart change itself to be percentages & number ie, axis changing the format itself. i am trying to present a dynamic chart and trying to show both sales and % sales in same column chart (based on a drop down option).
This may not be the best way to do this, but I don't know Macros or Pivot Tables.
I am looking for a way with formulas to do the following: Within a workbook the 1st sheet is the data entry. In another sheet that will total data from the data sheet is where I want to be able to total columns of data, depending on what is entered in one specific column:
Example: Data Sheet, E2:E2999 is a unit number selcted by pull down tab entry. G2:G2999 in the same sheet is where the data is.
Q: What formula would allow to total the data on the Total Sheet depending on what unit number is selected in column E on the Data Sheet and the data amount in column D from Data Sheet?
I'm sure this can be done but I don't think I have the formula correct. What I am trying to do is add each day's total while displaying a positive number if the total exceeds 6000.
I'm trying to figure out a simple spreadsheet that can spit out tournament payouts based on a flexible number of players (we might have 55, 60, 100) and flexible percentages based on the pot size (if we have 100 players, we would like to pay more players than if we had 50).
Something like [input number of players] [input pot size] [input # of payouts] [input percentage of each payout] it would just save a ton of time as we're trying to calculate payouts on the go.
Is there any way to get a custom number format to display a multiple of the cell value? e.g. can I have a cell have the value 0.005 and display the value 50?
I am wanting to take a number (any number) and multiply it by per minute using real time. For example: Say I have 12 apples. I want that 12 apples to multiply per hour.
12x(per 60 minutes)= total The total will change every hour because the formula will be using real time. I can write the formula for 12x60 but to enter the time, based on real time I just don't know or even if it can be done.
I did a search myself, then went through the 5 pages the "Post" function brought up. I'm sure it's been asked before, I must just not be using the right words
I need to tell every cell in one column to multiply itself by a firm number and a percentage. Ex: Column F will be the result of $77.80 times 75 percent all the way down the column. Column G will be $27.21 times 100 percent all the way down.
I could enter the formula into every cell, but I wondered if there's a way to just tell the whole column, only once, what it needs to do. PS-I work for an insurance company. The employees of a company want a spreadsheet showing exactly who pays exactly what. Ex: Their paystub shows $142.90 coming out of their paycheck. Their employer pays 100% of medical, 75% of dental. The columns would show Total, Employer Medical, Employer Dental, Employee Medical, Employee Dental.
rounding the numbers. I am working on a quote in which quantity is arrived by dividing the sell price by Total sell price. The condition is the result (quantity) should always be a whole number, I can achieve that by cell formatting but when the calculation is done using handheld calculator the results are different.
I need the result to be same if using excel or handheld device i.e quantity in whole number.
I am thinking this is either not possible or would be an If Then type formula but way beyond my knowledge.
The reason I want to do this is becaue if my student has a 79.5 avg for instance I would normally round to 80. However if they are off by just .1 (ex 79.4) i still want to give them the 80 and then I decided to make it within .2 (ex. 79.3.)
