IF/Then formula

I am trying to use an If/Then formula to calculate a value.  I'm using this: =IF(A8< 5000.01,C8=A8*0.05).

The cell that contains the formula is showing "FALSE". I want cell C8 to contain the calculated number.  What am I doing wrong?

 

Thanks.

    WMegl In C8 enter:

    =IF(A8< 5000.01,A8*0.05,"something else")

     

    .... where you can replace "something else" with whatever you want to display if A8 is NOT less then 5000.01.

      Neither of the formulas above worked. I'm still getting the word "FALSE: in the cell rather than a value.
