IF Function (Logical Test, True Formula, False Formula)
Hi Experts,
I am trying to use =IF(A1<8000000),(A1*0.05),(8000000*0.05)), but it does not work.
[Number Format] Cells A1 = 15,000,000
[Number Format] Cells B1 = 5,000,000
Expected Result:
A1 = 15,000,000 is more than 8,000,000 , "FALSE" use function 8,000,000 * 0.05
B1 = 5,000,000 is less than 8,000,000, "TRUE" use function 5,000,000 * 0.05
Please help me.
Hi Albert,
There is a syntax error in the formula!
You've closed the function in this point because of the right parenthesis after 8000000.
=IF(A1<8000000)
You need the remove the right parenthesis after 8000000 as follows:
=IF(A1<8000000,(A1*0.05),(8000000*0.05))
Also, no need to the parenthesis around A1*0.05 and 8000000*0.05.
=IF(A1<8000000,A1*0.05,8000000*0.05)
Hope that helps
