Default Need help with formula to forecast revenue

=IF($P3B2,B3,B3*$Q3)

Col 2 - 13 are Jan-Dec (data is 1 - 12 in the cells)
P3 has the month# of the renewal (1-12).
Q3 is a percent of increase (1.1 for a 10% increase, .9 for 10% decrease)

The above formula would be for January. You would just copy it right for
the other 11 months.

(Posted this yesterday and did not get any help)

Each Row is revenue by customer
Each column is a month {jan-07, feb-07, mar-07}
We have historical revenue for each month (TTM: last 12 months).
In a separate column we have an identifier when the contract changes
{JUL-07}.
(Different for each customer)
In another column we have a percent inc/dec/ expected over existing {10%} or
{-10%}
The output would be in each month after the contract expired

How do I set it up so in the cell where I want an output. I have a formula
that says if this month or greater fill in a value that is x% more/less than
the average of the past revenue amounts?

pro rate - probably an inaccurate way to describe what I am doing. This is
more like forecasting. We know a contract runs till end of June. We think we
will renew at 10% higher than the existing contract. The contract will begin
in July and I want to capture it at the new higher rate from July to the end
of December. Each row (customer) contract could be up for renew in different
months.


Example:

IF i have
Jan = 2,000
feb = 2,000
mar = 2,000
contract is scheduled to renew in April
April = {Insert formula}
May = {Insert formula}
..........
Amount for each month.
