How to calculate amount based on different categories?

Copper Contributor

Hi,

 

I have worksheet with the following:
Procedures; subcategorized to a,b,c and I want to calculate the amount for each one of them based on specific formula. e.g. if a, amount= 50/100 but if b, amount= 30/100.

 

Is it possible to do this? 

 

Thanks

@Harun24HR Thank you so much for your help

 

 Procedure CostMy share
DateEMG1630315
DateEMG13533
DateEEG2344
DateNCS36685
Total 71336397

My share should be based on 2 conditions. 1- type of procedure in Column two. 2- Cost.

EMG e.g. the amount in my share should be 30% of the cost column. EEG, my share amount is 40% (40/100) of the cost. NCSA, my share is 50% of the cost amount. 

 

what formula I can use to get these automatically.

 

Thanks again for your help

I'd use a small lookup table:

Formula in E2 is

=D2*XLOOKUP(B2,$H$2:$H$4,$I$2:$I$4)

Thank you so much

Really helpful, Appreciated

one more question please,
I want D2(cost)=D2 times C2. what formula i can use? I know these questions are basics but would really appreciate help

@saalgarni 

D2 cannot equal D2 times C2 - that would cause a circular reference and Excel would stop recalculating formulas.

Instead, insert a new column to the right of column D, and insert the formula =C2*D2 in E2.

I did, Thank you again for your extreme help
