Excel formula Help

Hi,

 

I am trying to create a formula which looks at a value in a cell then depending on the value returns a set price. for example if cell a1 is between 0 and 0.03 it should return the value of £1. if cell a1 is between 0.03 and 0.05 it should return the value of £2. If cell a1 is between 0.05 and 0.08 it should return the value of £3 etc.

 

many thanks in advance for any help

    Hi halkett  - You have to use a Vlookup formula with an approximate match and include your ranges in a lookup table.

     

    For instance:

    0 - .03 = Scenario 1

    .03 - .05 = Scenario 2

    .05 - .08 = Scenario 3

    .08 and above = Scenario 4

     

    Attached is a spreadsheet of how it works. Your variable (that you change to test the formula) is in A1. The Vlookup formula itself is in B1. Please let me know if this works for you.

     

     

     

    Regards,

  • Hi,

     

    If ignore your "etc." the function could be like

    You may hardcode your ranges within the formula, but that's not a good idea.

    Same is in attached file.
