    Please help calculating tiered bonus for multiple employees

    Hi All,

    I have what is probably a simple problem, but one which I cant solve. I need to calculate employee bonuses as follows

    Minimum sales bonus per sale
    30 £10.00
    40 £20.00
    60 £25.00

    So if someone made 70 sales they would get 30 x 0 plus 10x£10 plus 20x£20.00 plus 10 x £25.00 for a total of £750.00. I can make this work using separate arguments for each level, but only for one person. I suspect the answer is to do with a lookup table but cant figure it out. Can anyone help with this?

    Many thanks,

    Maybe this, assuming the sales count is in A1

    =IF(A1>60,25*(A1-60))+IF(A1>40,20*MIN(A1-40,20)) +IF(A1>30,10*MIN(A1-30,10))

    Or by using SUMPRODUCT

    =SUMPRODUCT(--(a1>{0,30,40,60}),--(a1-{0,30,40,60}),{0,10,10,5})

    Thanks so much to Mr Ice and Glenn Kennedy. Both solutions work perfectly and I now see why my own didn't-I was trying to combine a lookup table with similar although much more lengthy arguments to Mr Ice. I'm going to learn a lot from analysing both solutions later.

    Thanks Again!
