Averaging last 25 non zero values.
 

Hi,

Have a dynamic list of sales values and want to make several
calculations on them, most of which I can do myself.... However, I
want to find an average of the last 25 (non-zero) values without using
a macro is this possible??

Many thanks in advance,
Peter

Averaging last 25 non zero values.
 

Maybe

=AVERAGE(LARGE( SUBTOTAL(9,
OFFSET(A1:A100,LARGE(IF(A1:A100<0,ROW(A1:A100)-MIN(ROW(A1:A100))),ROW(INDIRECT("1:25"))),0,1)),{1 ,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20, 21,22,23,24,25}))

It's an array so enter with Ctrl+Shift+Enter
Works on the range A1 - A100 so change to suit.
There must be a better way so lets wait for other solutions

Here's an adaptation of one I developed some time ago. It's an array
formula, so you need to use CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER (rather than just ENTER) when
you first enter it and whenever you edit it.
=AVERAGE(OFFSET(A1,LARGE(ISNUMBER(A1:A100)*(ROW(A1 :A100)-ROW(A1)),25),0,ROWS(A1:A100)-LARGE(ISNUMBER(A1:A100)*(ROW(A1:A100)-ROW(A1)),25)))
