Excel Formula, combining two IF statements
In general, it's good practice to arrange your IF statements into an IF, THEN, ELSE (If not) order. For instance,
If C7>=70
Then C7*0.5
Else (If not, then) C7*0.65
This always translates well to the IF function in Excel, which is IF("If" condition, "Then" condition, "Else" condition) or =IF(C7>=70,C7*0.5,C7*0.65)
Just be aware that it will always follow the first condition that meets the criteria, in this case multiplying it by 0.5.
Also take a look at IFS, which is good for multiple IF statements. The format is the condition followed by the action, followed by a new condition and subsequent action and on and on. For example,
=IFS(C7>70,C7*0.5,C7>60,C7*0.65,C7>50,C7*.73,C7>40,C7*.78,TRUE,C7*.82) (Where the "TRUE" will catch all cases that don't meet the other criteria).
Good luck!
I've read all the replies to the intial question without being able to apply it successfully to my two formulas that I want to combine.
IF(AND(E3=15;B3>50)40;50)
IF(AND(E3=7,5;B3>50);30;20)
Both formulas work fine separately, but I need them to be in one cell, i.e. combined. How do I do?
Thanks!
