    RE: Multiple Condition Formula

    Hi
    If the numbers in the first column ( A1) and the the incomes (B1) are
    directly related, you would simply add another column (C1). In C1 put
    =B1*0.40 and copy down as far as required.

    Ok. I must not have explained my question properly. I apologize.

    Here is the set up of my spreadsheet:

    Unit Percentage # in Household Maximum Income
    41% 2
    39% 5

    Ok. I must not have properly explained my question. I apologize.

    Here an excerpt from my spreadsheet:

    Assigned % # in Household 140% of Income
    41% 2 =49100*.41*1.4
    38% 3 =55200*.38*1.4
    67% 1 =42900*.67*1.4
    etc.

    (I am still referencing the data that I listed in my original post.)

    So, how do I get the "140% of Income" column to automatically take the
    income amount (e.g. 42900) assigned to the number in the household to use in
    the formula without having to manually do it?

    Does this make sense?

    SORRY! This is my first time posting here...

    In my last post I am assuming the following:

    # in Household Income
    1 42,900
    2 49,100
    3 55,200
