Hello,
I want to calculate:
(1+Q13*$N$2)+PRODUCT(1+Q13:Q14*$N$2)+PRODUCT(1+Q13:Q15*$N$2)+... +PRODUCT(1+Q13:Q33*$N$2)
is there any shorter way I dont need to write them all?
Hi,
Unfortunately, without seeing your data it is difficult to give you any advice. Could you please describe it in more detail? What result do you want to get? Please provide me with an example of the source data and the expected result.
multiplication function for these cells: N11, N12, N13, E14, and E15
Thank you!
My problem is simple, in A column is a, b, c, d, e, f, g repeate randomly up to millions, corresponding value 3, 5, 4, 6, 2, 7, 1, 8 randomly, multiply with colum B, Each cell value is different, more than two lac.... please solve my problem with exact formula wth helper.....
Hello!
Your explanation is not very detailed, but I think the article will be useful to you: Excel random selection.
I hope my advice will help you solve your task.
Hello.
I am sure this is a simple problem. IF statement to multiply part of the value by a %, but there are parameters based on value reaching benchmark. Please see a simple example below.
Cell value: $100,000
If cell value is between $0 to 10,000, 8%.
If cell value is between $10,001 to 15,000, 10%.
If cell value is $15,0001 to 20,000, 15%.
If cell value is $20,001 to 25,000, 20%

Hi, I need help in Excel. I have a column of 22 services rendered, then the cost of the service in the next column, then the # of times the service is rendered in the next column. The rest of the columns across the spreadsheet I have columns for Sunday through Saturday for 1 week. For each service can be performed zero to 8 times a day. I am trying to create a formula to multiple the cost of the service times the number of times it is performed a day.For example cost of service, which is $3.00 is in cell D5, the number of times service is done, which is 3 times, is in cell E5 and in cell F5 I put the formula =Product(D5*E5) which gives me the total cost of the services rendered for that service for that day which is Sunday in my spreadsheet and the total is $9.00. If this same service was done on Monday, but for 6 times,I can not figure out how to set the formula so it does not change the correct amount for Sunday. I need the spreadsheet to show the correct amounts for each day of the week as the number of times the service is done changes or may change each day. If I use the formula =Product (D5*E5) in the cell for each day it gives me the same amount for everyday even when each day the number of times the service is rendered is a different number. How do I adjust the formula to show the correct amount for each day for the services rendered that day?2020
MONTH WEEK
#: Homecare Services Cost of service # Service done SUN MON TUES WED
1 Check on client $3.00 3 $9.00 $9.00
2 Assist/escort to Activities or meals $7.89
The services done daily change in number daily; in the above example Sunday it was done 3 times; but Monday it was done 6 times; how do I write the formula to change with the number of services done each day to get the right amount daily? Monday should not be $9.00, but $18.00 since it was done 6 times. Thank you for your help.
Hello Karmi!
If I understand your task correctly, the following formula should work for you:
=SUMPRODUCT(D2:D5,E2:E5,--(F2:F5="sun"))
I hope it’ll be helpful.
Hello,
I am trying to use a formula to track supplies. In this instance I would want to track full cases of an item as well as individual items.
I have my data set up where C:C would be cases and be required to be multiplied by 8
D:D would be individual boxes. What I would like to do is have an equation that would essentially mirror this 8*(C:C)+(D:D) but I haven't been able to figure out the proper way to organize it that excel likes. I've tried SUM, PRODUCT, and SUMPRODUCT to no avail.
Please help.

Hello Subramanian!
I’m sorry but your task is not entirely clear to me. What result do you want to get? If you want to calculate the amount on line 2 in cell G2, then use the formula
= SUM (A1: F1)
I recommend an article on the SUM function.
Could you please describe it in more detail? Thank you!

Is there a formula to calculate cells in sheet 2 with the same cell in sheet 1?
I am trying to figure out how to allocate travel cost of a worker according to the amount of time in a day they have spent in each category. Example:
Jack has 3 hours travel @ $50/hr. He has a total of 9 hours worked that day. 2 hours he spent on sales, 1 hour on administration and 2 hours on documentation. I want a formula that will multiple the travel time by his rate, turn the travel time into a percentage and be able to allocate his hours across the categories dependent on how many hours he worked in each category. I believe I first need to turn travel time into a percentage of the total hours that day and then multiple that percentage by the number of hours in each category, then multiple that number by rate. Wanted to have a formula so that I can do this daily for multiple workers.
Hi all,
I am looking for a bit of advice. I have created a spreadsheet to calculate the total cost of an order, comparing 3 different companies prices.
I have a drop down menu to select the type of equipment that we require and have added a sumif formula to automatically input the singular unit value of the selected equipment into the adjacent column. I also have a quantity column, I would like to be able to select the equipment type in the drop down box and have a formula to automatically multiply the unit cost by the quantity and input that value into the cell in place of the singular unit cost.
For example, I would like to order 5 packs of large gloves. I would select the large gloves in the drop down menu which would automatically input the unit value for 1 pack of gloves via the sumif formula into the next cell. I would then enter the quantity as '5' into the quantity column and I would like the formula to multiply the singular unit cost by 5 and automatically enter the total in place of the singular unit
Does anyone know how I can do this?
I hope this makes sense, I am happy to further explain if necessary.
Thank you so much, this was so helpful!!!

Hi
I am trying to do a calculation based off the grouping of a third cell.
i.e. I have 2 cells ID and Amount
There are 2 rows for each ID number.
I would like to do a calculation that uses the ID number to find the two amounts and subtract amount one from amount 2.
example
ID AMOUNT
Row1 500 100
Row2 500 250 This would yield 150
Thanks is advance for any help.

THank you doug!!
Aaron:
Does =Product(D3:D13) work? If so, does the product of the range D3:F2 make sense for your purposes?
Is F2 a number you want to multiply the D3:D13 range by? Something like this: =Product(D3:D13,F2)
This says get the product of the range D3 to D13 and multiply it by the number in F2.
If F2 is a static number then try:
=Product(D3:D13,3) or whatever number is in F2.
Hi Doug,
Thanks for the quick response! What you said here was in the right direction:
"=Product(D3:D13,F2)
This says get the product of the range D3 to D13 and multiply it by the number in F2."
Rather than the product of the range D3 to D13, I'm trying to figure out how to get the sum of the range D3 to D13 and multiply it by the number in F2.
For some context, F2 is the quantity of units, and D3:D13 are values representing profit amounts. The easy way would be to add a cell somewhere, take A2 for example, that is =SUM(D3:D13) and then doing =PRODUCT (A2,F2) but I'm trying to figure out how I can skip a step.
Thanks!
Aaron:
OK, that being the case the formula should be:
=Sum(D3:D13)*F2
Does that work for you?
Yes! What if I wanted to multiply the sum of D3:D13 by the product of F2:F5?
Is there a more efficient way than doing =Sum(D3:D13*(F2*F3*F4*F5)?
Aaron:
This is where you can use the PRODUCT function.
It might look like this: =SUM(D3:D13)*PRODUCT(F2:F5)
Thank you so much!
Hi,
This was a helpful article, thanks! However, I'd like to multiply the sum of values in multiple cells with the value in another cell. For example:
=PRODUCT(D3+D4+D5+D6+D7+D8+D9+D10+D11+D12+D13,F2) is what I want to do, how would I do this without typing each one out?
=PRODUCT((=SUM D3:D13),F2) of course does not work. Thanks!
0.66.7 * 2500 multiply formula .....?
I cant figure this out seems very simple
A1(10)*A2(10)
=100
then times then add 10% to it to equal 110
tried =(A1*A2)*.1 but it comes up with 10
Marc:
You have to add the multiplied cell values to the result of the cell you divided.
=((A1*A2)*0.1)+(A1*A2)
Shipping
$10.36
$0.00
$0.00
$15.70
$10.88
$0.00
$13.13
I would like to create a formula that if i enter a number into a column that it would multiply it by a percentage say 15%. So my example is if i enter $15.00 into my shipping column how can i write a formula to multiply that by 15% to get $17.25 in my shipping column?
Dean:
If price is in A1 then formula in shipping column's cell looks like this:
=(A1*0.15)+A1
Be sure to format the A1 and shipping cells as Currency.
If you ever need to change the percentage you can enter a cell address in the formula in place of the hard-coded "0.15" and modify your shipping cost a little easier.
How to multiply too many cells in one Formula
its great see this kind of tips to learn something
Is it possible to have the value of a cell be a number multiplied by a multiple of another number in a cell?
For example: C50 = 2 x every multiple of 100 in B50.
So if B50 was 300, C50 = 600; if B50 was 378, C50 = 600.
Is there a formula for this?
Thanks
