Need help creating formula for given data
Formula somewhat worked. Where did you come up with the 140 in the string?

Try it this way where g2 is the purchase price and g3 is the number of shs.
=MAX(7,7+IF(AND(G2140,G31000),(G3-1000)*0.005))

Unfortunately your formula did not work. I should have been more specific.
First, I am using MS Excel 2007. The Information follows:
I have total shares in cell G2. I have total cost of purchase in cell V2.
The standard commission is $7.00, but if I multiply the total cost of
purchase by 5% and it exceeds the $7.00, then the commission is $7.00 plus
$0.005 per share after the intial 1000 shares.

I have develped a spreadsheet to assist me in my stock trading. I have
one
column that I need to set up to calculate the commission rate. It took
me
a
couple of years to get the basic calculations information figured out
back
in
1998 and it has helped me a great deal when used on all my accounts.
But,
I
still lack the expertise in some calculation functions. I would greatly
appreciate anyones assistance. Given information follows:
Commision rate is equal to $7.00. If though by multiplying 5% of the
total
price, that figure exceeds the $7.00 standard rate, then additional
commission is $0.005 per share that exceeds 1000 shares.
