Default Need a Formula

Vicky. Tell us how you would calculate it on paper. Then we can help you
with Excel. It all depends on your definition of "head count".

Regards,
Fred.

I guess headcount would be Volume/(Set Targets X Hours Worked)

Assuming you have Volume in cell B2, Set Targets in C2, Hours Worked in
D2
and you need the headcount in E2 then enter this formula in E2
=B2/(C2 * D2)

You can copy the formula down Col E if you have data in many rows.

If your formula is different then you can combine B2, C2 and D2 with
+, - ,
* (for multiplication) and / (for division) as per your need.
