    Formula for writing a forecast of my expenses

    Hi All,

    I am currently trying to write a formula for my expenses, but what i want to do is to write it by day for the full year.

    I have some expenses like Mortgage which goes out every month, but others like water which only goes out every quarter.

    How do I go about writing a formula for the frequency of the expense as well as the amount, especially if the expenses occurs on the 31 of the month, or after 28th (for Feb), and so in the months of Feb I would want it to fall on the end of the month.

    Kind Regards

    Ali

    1. You need to figure out when each expense occurs (i.e. always on the 28th, or last Friday of the month), and how much you plan for it to be.

    2. You need to figure out what format you want to display the info in? A table with expense by month? By day? Think about how you plan to use it in order to determine the layout.

    3. Once you have these figured out, set up a spreadsheet that has a list of expenses and as much of the setup as you can do, then upload it and we can help you fill in formulas.
