Howdy,
As the title states I am a little bit of an excel noob, at least with anything more than adding and subtracting data.
I think it is easier if I just explain in words what I am trying to do.
Okay so I have three columns:
Column 1 Column 2 Column 3
100 50 50
150 50 100
100 20 80
At the moment column 1 subtracts from column 2 and the answer is in column 3.
The way I did this is =a=*1-*2 formula for every cell in column 3.
Great it works.
However what i would like to do is that whatever the answer is in column 3 to be added to the next number in column 1. it is for a day by day budget. below is the same numbers with different headings:
Allowance Spent Remaining Balance
Day 1 100 50 50
Day 2 150 50 100
Day 3 100 20 80
So I want the answer in (remaining balance column) to add to the next day's (allowance column)
So essentially the table would now look like:
Allowance Spent Remaining Balance
Day 1 100 50 50
Day 2 200 50 150
Day 3 250 20 230
Can anyone help with the formula to make this happen with maybe a little instruction to help an out.
You will be spreading the karma to a good person
:-)
Thanks in advance
