Default Still trying to figure it out


I am desperately trying to learn how to use Excel and am very new and am
not a math whiz to boot. I'm probably trying to run before I can walk in
trying to use the "if" function.

All I'm attempting to do is tell a cell to provide one answer if so and
so and another answer is so and so. In other words here is my original
formula:
=(AD5+AE5)*AF5*3.40-.21. This is where the "if" comes into play ( I
think). If AD5+AE5 is less than (4) I want to subtract the (.21) for
the end results; if AD5+AE5 is more than (4) and less than (8) I want
to subtract (.8) from the end results.
If AD5+AE5 is more than (12) and less than (20) I want subtract (1.3)
from the end results etc.

I started this thread earlier today and both response were good (I
guess) but both came up with an answer of .21 no matter what value I
use for AD5 and AE5. I admit I had an error in my first thread about
(12) and (20) but I have tried to correct it here. Perhaps someone can
still help.

Thanks,
Robertgn
