    formula help for conditional statement and hlookup

    Hi all,

    I am building a budget sheet for years 2013 - 2018 by month. Someone will enter $$ in either a monthly or annual amount. There will be columns with change rates / growth rates by month, for example, a 10% increase in 1/1/2013 and another 25% increase in 7/1/2013 etc. I would like to add any month change on a need basis, for example, just add a column for the month that a mid year change is happening. Is there anyway to build a formula where an amount is calculated by 1) identifying if it is an annual rate whereby the amount is divided by 12 for each month or a monthly rate 2) appropriately calculates the monthly amount incorporating the change.

    I've progressed a bit on the formula however I'm having problems getting the 2012 amounts which should be the original budget without any changes as well as getting the formula to put in a 0 instead of a false after the end date. Not sure if I've used the correct functions or not.

    I've attached a new example, example 2.

    Thank you!

    Hi Fungster,

    Welcome to the forum.
    1) identifying if it is an annual rate whereby the amount is divided by 12 for each month or a monthly rate
    where you are entering this in the worksheet and how Excel will understand if an amount entered is a monthly or yearly rate?

    Hi!

    I will enter either a monthly amount (column K) or an annual amount (column L), it can never be both. I did an if statement to see if there is data in column L, if False, then take the data in column K, if true, then take data in column L and divide by 12.

    Thanks!

    Ok.. fungster.. I can see that the data is there in K13 and L12 as monthly and annual amount

    For row 13, you can use the following formula :-
