Default Total under certain number?

Thanks very Gary the formulas work.
I was hoping to be able to figure out how to use these formulas, but Im
getting confused.
The table I gave you was a very simple example of the one Im using.
What Im trying to do is keep a running total of the combined units up to the
point the hours reaches 40:00 hours then the total continue on the cell
below. I then extract in percentage usage of hours for both units under 40:00
hours and over as well. But its giving me a head ache!!
Any ideas?

We can use SUMPRODUCT(). In D1 thru D4:

=MIN(SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:A7="A"),B2:B7),4)
=MIN(SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:A7="B"),B2:B7),4)
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:A7="A"),B2:B7)-D1
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:A7="B"),B2:B7)-D2

These are NOT array functions.

for under 5 hours in D1 and D2 enter:

=MIN(SUM(IF(A2:A7="A",B2:B7)),4)
=MIN(SUM(IF(A2:A7="B",B2:B7)),4)

for over 5 hours in D3 and D4 enter:

=SUM(IF(A2:A7="A",B2:B7))-D1
=SUM(IF(A2:A7="B",B2:B7))-D2

All the above are array formulas installed by CNTRL-SHIFT-ENTER

Hi,
I have a spreadsheet with data from two different units. What I would like
to do is to be able to total, for each unit, figures under a certain number
and totals for above the same number.
Example:

Unit Hours
A 2
A 2
B 3
A 4
B 1
B 1
and so on.....

Totals for: Unit Hours
Under 5 hours A 4
B 4

Over 5 hours A 4
B 1


Hope that helps!
