excel summing N largest values by condition
Hello there,
I'm struggling with an array formula that will return the SUM of the Top 20 values in a list that meet a given criteria. E.g. SUM the Top 20 instances of Dog. Condition Field Data Field Dog 5000 Dog 4954 Cat 4221 Dog 3465 Etc. I can happily return the overall Top 20 using the following array formula: {=SUM(LARGE(Data,ROW(INDIRECT("1:20"))))} However i'm stumped on how to add a condition to the formula. Hope someone can help... |

excel summing N largest values by condition
=SUM(LARGE(IF(A2:A37="Dog",B2:B37),ROW(INDIRECT("1 :"&MIN(20,COUNTIF(A:A,"Dog"))))))
which is an array formula, it should be committed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter, not just Enter. Excel will automatically enclose the formula in braces (curly brackets), do not try to do this manually. When editing the formula, it must again be array-entered. -- HTH Bob (there's no email, no snail mail, but somewhere should be gmail in my addy) wrote in message ...

excel summing N largest values by condition
Hi Stuart:
If you already have a good method to get the top 20 from a column, then in C1: =IF(A1="dog",B1,-9999) and copy down. Then get the top 20 from column C -- Gary''s Student - gsnu2007a " wrote: Hello there, I'm struggling with an array formula that will return the SUM of the Top 20 values in a list that meet a given criteria.

Thanks Stephen,
This works a treat... {=SUM(LARGE((A1:A100="Dog")*(B1:B100),ROW(INDIRECT ("1:20"))))} Unfortunately stumps me an the next permutation which is: SUM the VALUE data WHERE condition = Dog AND VOLUME is in Top 20 Condition Field Volume Field Value Field Dog 5000 99.99 Dog 4954 126.98 Cat 4221 44.76 Don't suppose you've any ideas?

Try the following array formula:
=SUM(IF((A1:A100="A")*(RANK(B1:B100,B1:B100)<5),C1 :C100)) Does this work?
