Thumbs up Answer: Multiply Cell Values which include text units

Yes, you can multiply cell B13 which has a text unit with cell C13 which has a currency format by using a combination of functions in Excel. Here's how you can do it:
  1. First, you need to extract the numeric value from cell B13. You can do this by using the following formula in cell D13:

    Code:
    =VALUE(LEFT(B13,FIND(" ",B13)-1))
    This formula will extract the numeric value from cell B13 and ignore the text "Units".
  2. Next, you need to multiply the value in cell D13 with the value in cell C13. You can do this by using the following formula in cell G13:

    Code:
    =D13*C13
    This formula will multiply the numeric value from cell B13 with the currency value in cell C13 and give you the result in cell G13.

By using these formulas, you can multiply cell values which include text units and currency formats without receiving the "#value!" error in the formula cell.
