    A percentage calculation from a predetermined kick-in point

    I am trying to put together a formula which is probably really simple but I am at a loss.

    We have a bonus system that kicks in when a staff member reaches a given percentage. from that point they then receive a bonus based on a percentage from that point. I have worked out what I think would be correct (shown below) but I don't know how to put a formula together to do the calculation for me.

    the kick in percentage is 80% and the min bonus at that would be 200.00
    if their score is 100% then they would get 500.00

    I worked out that each percent would be equal to 15 (500-200=300)/(100-80=20)=15

    therefore

    81% = 215.00
    82% = 230.00
    83% = 245.00
    84% = 260.00
    85% = 275.00
    86% = 290.00
    87% = 305.00
    88% = 320.00
    89% = 335.00
    90% = 350.00
    91% = 365.00
    92% = 380.00
    93% = 395.00
    94% = 410.00
    95% = 425.00
    96% = 440.00
    97% = 455.00
    98% = 470.00
    99% = 485.00
    100% = 500.00

    Because the amounts change according to job description and the percentage score comes from a score card, it would be great to have the following:

    Cell 1 = Variable value. In this example Max 500.00
    Cell 2 = variable value. In this example Min 200.00
    Cell 3 = Scored value. In this example say 97%
    Cell4 = Result. In this case 455.00

    Is there a simple formula that I could use to achieve this result?

    Thank you in advance

    Try

    =MIN(500,MAX(200,200+(A1-0.8)*100*15))
    Life's a spreadsheet, Excel!
