Thanks all for the replies. Actually, there was typing error. the correct
anwer for the below (1st eg) is 25.

On top of the below requirement, there is another criteria as following:

If the charge for 1st set is 10.00, 5.00 per very additional set.
And 1 set can consist of 5 items.

Eg: if there are 17 items, then there should be 4 sets , so charges are 25.00
*eventhough the 4th set consists of 3 items only, but it will be charged as
5.00 for the particular set.

I have tried out this,

A1= no. of items

=IF(A1/51,ROUNDUP(A1/5-1,0)*5+10,10)

As the OP has not replied to any posts in this thread,
one must assume that he is otherwise occupied, or that
the "20" was a typo!
Also, the formula(s) provided by "Muhammed Rafeek M",
will probably meet his requirements.

Gee George, your right (vbg). I would suggest the OP post again with
exactly
what he wants! 10+5+5+5=25, not 20. If the anser is to be 20, then some
logic is missing, so no one will really be in a position to help him! To
try
and get to 20, is an excercise in futility, as it will not help the
person.

Sorry, if someone could explain the original posters logic.
To me the answer to the original question is 25.

i guss ur eq is wrong. according to ur logic if the total is 20 items,
then
the answer would be 25.00

however see the below mentioned foumula
=IF(A1=5,10+INT((A1-5)/5)*5,10)

or

=IF(A1=5,10+((A1-5)/5)*5,10)

u can try both formula

if u need further information, pls let me know

pls do rating

Hi all,

Kindly assist on the following:

eg: 10.00 per 1st 5 items, 5.00 per every additional 5 items
Thus, if the total is 20 items, then the answer would be 20.00

Pls adv on generating the formula for the above. Thanks in advance.
