=AVERAGE(IF(rng1=condition,rng2))

which is an array formula, it should be committed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter, not
just Enter.

Is there an equivalent to sumif for average, i.e. averageif? If not, do
you know of any simple solutions?

I was thinking of creating a separate row to hold the relevant data
subset. Using an if statement, I would blank out ("") all the values
from the original data set not needed for the average calculation. And
then just calculate the average on the new data subset. I figured,
however, that there was probably a more desirable way to do this. Any
help is appreciated.
