MATHS FORMULA

good morning all, i have a question, hopefully you may be able to help.

i am charged £285 per mile for the first 250 miles then 0.45p per mile thereafter

if we used 480 as an example what formula could i use to get my final cost?

  • GILLY440 

     

    With the distance in A1:

     

    =285+MAX(A1-250,0)*0.45

     

    This will work both for distances under and over 250 miles.

    =(250*285)+((480-250)*0,45)

    =71353,5

     

     

    I would be happy to know if I could help.

      =(480-250*0,45)+285 = 652,5

      Hi Hans
      Flat rate of £285 for the first 250 miles then 45pence per mile added on thereafter
