Apportioning revenue

So what do you need help with? How to input the formula?

Thanks for the reply. What I need is a formula/function that I can put
in the uppermost cell of the final answer column, and that I can then
copy through out the rest of the column, if you follow my drift.
Currently my spreadsheet lloks like this:
Product Item Product Volume Item Volume Product Rev
Item Rev
Product A xxx 10
Product A yyy 5
Product A zzz 25 10
1000
the formula I use is Item Volume x Product Revenue / Product Volume.
When I this formula into Item Rev column, I have to use absolute
referencing for the Product Volume and Rev rows, which is fine if there
were only the three rows. The formula then has to be corrected for the
next (and each subsequent) Product/item mix. I could use vlookup
tables to insert the product volume and rev on each row, I suppose?
But is there a better way of arriving at the answer for each different
mix?
Thanks
