I hope someone can enlighten me with this! basically I have a sales total required at the end of the next 12 months, and I need to schedule a monthly sales budget that will deliver month on month growth and take me from where I am today to where I need to be in 12 months - I have a starting point (ie the total of this last 12 months sales and profit) and I have target sum totals for the required total at the end of this next 12 months. What I need is a formula to calculate the monthly totals that will take me from the starting sum to the finishing sum charting steady growth between now and then (based on the working days in each month). I'm guessing this is perfectly doable, but I'm not a very advanced excel user so I'm not sure where to start!
