Col F contains a purchase amount including a GST tax, col G contains the same
purchase amount excluding GST. Col K is sale price inc GST, col L excluding
GST.
When ever the value in L is than that of G, I need to calculate the
difference between the two amounts of tax, ($2000 at purchase & $19090.91 at
sale, being $90.91) I then need to show this figure in col I as well as
adding it into col H.

F G H I

$22000.00 $20000.00 $861.91 $90.91 $21000.00
$19090.91

We need to know what is in column H. A formula?

Hi Tyro, Col H has no formula attached to it.

Tyro, additional info. Col H is a col for additional cost related to that
purchase. Input manually. The difference between the two tax amounts becomes
an additional cost.

With the numbers shown, and assuming all the numbers are in row 1, the
formula for I1 is simply =F1-G1-K1+L1. (Or =F1-G1-(K1-L1), in case you're
wondering where the + came from.) It's column H that presents a problem.You
say it contains a manually entered number. The only way (without using VBA)
to add the $90.91 to that is to put the answer in another cell such as M1
where the formula would be =H1+I1. The formula for I1 assumes that F1 is
greater than or equal to K1.

Hey Tyro, that formula does calculate the correct amount for me, thank you,
however I need it to only perform that calculation when the sale price is
less than the purchase price. At present it calculates regardless of buy or
sale price, when applied to the entire column.

The addition of this calculation to col H is no big deal, I can easily do it
manually. The big pain is doing the other calculation manually and keeping
track of when its required.
Which is when the sale price is less than the purchase price, regardless of
any additional reconditioning costs.

Cheers Paul

Hi Paul,

First up to help others you should have mentioned that GST tax in Australia
is a flat
rate of 10% across the board.

This fomula in I1 will calc the difference between the two tax amounts.
=G1*0.1-L1*0.1

Obviously you need more than that but your post is not very clear, e.g.
When ever the value in L is than that of G,

Is that supposed to be lesser than or greater than?

Also what are the row numbers?
How is to be added to H? On the next row down maybe?
Or is it already added in the $861.91? i.e. was the value above
that one $770.00?

The better explanation you give the better answer you will get.

Regards
Martin

OK just saw your next post, still confusing but getting closer.
Maybe this.
=IF(L1<G1,G1*0.1-L1*0.1,"")

You don't say what happens if L1 is greater than G1 so I
left it as a blank.

Martin, Thank you! You have just saved me me untold headaches. This is the
first time I have used this facility and was endevouring to keep things as
concise as possible. I will certainly proof read posts pror to posting, in
the future, yes it should have beem less than.

Thanks again, have a great weekend.

Hey Tyro, Thanks very much, I now realise I gave you very unclear directions
to work with initially. Your formula, works just as well as martins. Thanks
