    Forum Rules
    Please read and adhere to these simple rules!

    1. Use concise, accurate thread titles. Your post title should describe your problem, not your anticipated solution. Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.

    To change the title of the thread, click EDIT on the original post, then click the Go Advanced button, then change the title. If two or more hours have passed, the EDIT button will not appear, and you need to ask a moderator to change the title.

    In C10 put
    =C2/(1-C$1)
    and pull down.

    Rename your thread to something like:
    Price before Discount Forumla.

    Thanks Marvin and Zbor, apologies.

    What I am looking for is that 1.00 is the figure with the 26% added in.

    What would the formula be to calculate what the 1 would be before the 26% increase was applied.

    Thanks and best regards

    Tim
