    How do I make specific calculations based on numerous criteria?

    Hi,

    1st time user.

    I have a simple calculation I want to make but in lieu of the volume that needs to be done (142 times) it's like a mountain in front of me and will take forever. I have 4 different criterias that need to be take into account with every calculation. If the rating is:
    0 - 2 then = rating cell * 0
    2 - 2.79 then = rating cell * 0.5
    2.8 - 2.99 then = rating cell * 0.75
    3 then = rating cell * 1

    I hope that makes sense!

    Kind regards,

    try this
    =IF(A1>2.99,A1*1,IF(A1>2.79,A1*0.75,IF(A1>1.99,A1*0.5,A1*0)))

    If A1 is the rating cell

    Hi,

    thanks but the answer comes to more than 100%. Depending on the input in the rating cell, it should look at the criteria mentioned and then make the corresponding calculation. I am rating staff. I want to calculate costs if we give 12% increases this year. If the person is rated 2.72, then looking at the mentioned criteria, it should calculate the 12*0.5

    Sounds clear as mud doesn't it?

    Here is another option using VLOOKUP.
