Median for Year
How do I set up a formula that will calculate the job that produced
the median amount of revenue for each year? (Jobs are counted in the year they were submitted.) My data is set up as below: Columns: A: Customer Name B: Customer Number C: Date Job was Submitted D: Date Job was Returned E: Turnaround Time F: Associate who Completed the Job G: Revenue from Job Thanks in advance for your help, Kevin |
Median for Year
try
to get the row try =MATCH(MEDIAN(IF(year(C:C)=2007,G:G)),G:G*(year(C: C)=2007),0) this will select the first job with the median. you can use index match to extract the specific info you want if there are several the job gets a little harder.

If there is an even number of data points the median will never (?) be one
of those data points. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "bj" wrote in message ... try to get the row try =MATCH(MEDIAN(IF(year(C:C)=2007,G:G)),G:G*(year(C: C)=2007),0) this will select the first job with the median. you can use index match to extract the specific info you want if there are several the job gets a little harder.

Ok, this is my final** answer <g :
If there is an even number of data points the median will never (?) be one of those data points. Let me rephrase that: If there is an even number of data points the median will most likely not be one of those data points. ** until my next answer -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "T.

OR 2)There is an even number of data points and the middle two are the same. |

So, if you're using a MATCH formula to find the MEDIAN there's a good possibilty that it may not exist. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP |
