    Reverse calculation formula

    Hello friends,

    Gross 2000000
    18% 360000 (18% never changes)
    2% 40000 (this is a dynamic value and keeps changing to 8%, 10% etc.)
    Net 2320000

    This is what I have in range A1:B4
    Formula in B2 : =B1*A2
    Formula in B3 : =B1*A3
    Formula in B4 : =SUM(B1:B2)-B3

    I am unable to calculate it reverse. Lets say I have only two values available, Net ( 2320000) and 2% then how can I calculate the Gross (2000000)?

    Please help.

    Re: Reverse calculation formula

    IF you have
    A1=2%
    A2=232000
    Try in A3=
    =A2/(1+18%-A1)
