    Question How to rename a formula

    Hi all,

    I thought this might be simple, but it seems to be more difficult than it sounds.

    If I have 2 formulas in the one cell. Example:
    =sum(A1:A5)*IF(A1>0,A1*B1,0)

    Is there a way to rename each formula as such:
    =TOTAL*VARIABLE

    Where;
    TOTAL=sum(A1:A5)
    and
    VARIABLE=IF(A1>0,A1*B1,0)


    BUT... The tricky part is, I don't want the renamed formulas to be absolute. I.e. If I drag the formula down, I would like the cell referencing to drag down also.


    I have attached an example for reference.

    Thanks in advance.
    D.
