Hope someone can help me he
let's say I have table like the following with different situations of 'Target' and 'Result' and I want to calculate deviation from 'Target' in an Excel sheet: Target Result Deviation 30 40 33,33 40 21 -47,50 0 23,5 23,50 0 0 0,00 In order to do so, I would like to construct a formula which can check out the figures and return wtih the deviation result in %. The first formula below can be copied and covers easily line 1; 2 and 4, but not line 3 (as you cannot divide anything with 1% of '0'!) =IF(C2=A2;0;(C2-A2)/(A2/100)) In order to calculate line 3, I need another formula like: =IF(C4=A4;0;(C4)/(100/100)) It would help me immensely, if the two formulas could be combined to only one. I have tried to do do, but EXCEL returns with an error message telling me that there are too many arguments in the formula. However - my logic tells me it SHOULD be possible to combine the two to one. CAN ANYBODY HELP? Best regards, jesper (in Denmark) |
