I'm ok with normal if formulas, but am struggling slightly with this.
Example: column 1 = qty column 2 = rate
now I wish column 2 to show this, if qty is 0 then show 0.00, if qty is between 1 - 200 then show £1.54, if qty is 201 - 400 then show £1.34, if qty is between 401 - 600 then show £1.22, etc etc
My column 3 is rate x qty this will then calculate the correct qty x rate automatically based on qty entered, hopefully.
In B2, try this formula
=LOOKUP(A2,{0,1,201,401},{0,1.54,1.34,1.22})

hi,
JBeaucaire's suggestion of using virtual array (symbolised by the "squiggly brackets") within a lookup formula will work, but it can be harder to maintain if the rates change.
I suggest creating a reference table & referring to the table, that way any rate changes are made within the table which is more "transparent" & the formulae can remain the same. See attached file for an example where I have also used a dynamic named range to automatically detect new entries on the Reference Table.
