Hi,

I was wondering if someone could help me.

I have 5 projects with different set of revenues.

Project Rev Cost Profit margin
P1 50000 X1 Y
P2 10000 X2 Y
P3 100000 X3 Y
P4 20000 X4 Y
P5 50000 X5 Y

I have total cost of X1-5 = 270000,-

And now I want the 270 000 to be distributed on my 5 project so that they
all have the same profit margin Y.

By Profit Margin, do you mean the difference between revenue and cost,
or the percentage profit compared with cost?

% for example 20% on all of them.

The sum of the revenue in your example is 230000, so you will be
making a loss if your cost is 270000. Carrying through with this
example, though, your profit is -40000, which gives -14.8% profit. Is
this the profit margin you want to apply to all projects?

Oh boy! My bad..

Yes your right. Say total cost is 150000 then. So 34,78% profit margin.

How do i divide my cost out to get that profit margin on all projects.

Okay, that will give you a profit of 80000 on a cost of 150000, so I
work that out as a margin of 53.3% (i.e. compared with cost).

I put your headings in A1:D1 and your example data in A2:B6, with a
formula =SUM(B2:B6) in B7 to give a total income of 230000.

Put your total cost (150000) in C7, and this formula in D7:

=(B7-C7)/C7

and format this as percentage. Put this formula in C2:

=B2/(1+D$7)

and copy this into C3:C6. You can also copy the formula from D7 into
D2:D6 to give you the percentages, for checking. Finally, put the
heading "Profit" in F1 and this formula in F2:

=B2-C2

and copy this down F3:F6 to give you the actual profit for each
project - this column should add up to 80000 in F7.

All you need to do now is to change the value in C7 to see the effect
overall.

Hope this helps.
