Hi DR,

I am guessing that you need to check your units.

Assuming you mean you want to multiply a time by an hourly rate you
need to make sure both parts are in the same units.

Your time will probably be in days (excel's standard unit of time -
see the help files), and therefore you need to multiply it by a daily
rate (rather than $/min or whatever else you might use).

If your current rate is in $/min then multiply that by 24 x 60 (1440)
to get to a daily equivalent.

Try that and post back with somthing specific (example) if it doesn't
resolve your issue.

HTH,

Alan.

This is valid as is. It is not munged, or altered at all.

It will be valid for AT LEAST one month from the date of this post.

If you are trying to contact me after that time,
it MAY still be valid, but may also have been
deactivated due to spam. If so, and you want
to contact me by email, try searching for a
more recent post by me to find my current

The following is a (probably!) totally unique

the payroll calculators are not able to calculate the difference or

hours and minutes and create an actual number that can then be
multiplied...at least I couldn't figure it out.
