Tracking an amount that accrues Daily
 
I'm trying to get the vacation time for my store, which accrues at a rate of
..22 hr per day, to calculate and auttomatically adjust each day. How do i
write out the formula using the =Day() function* or the =NOW() function*? Or
is there a better way to express this?

hi
first you have to have a base date - a date that the accruels started (and
doesn't change). at my company that is fiscal year start 4/1/XX.
with base date in A1....
=(today()-A1)*.22
might be better to use today() instead of now() because Now() calculates to
the second and today() calculates to the day.

One way:

A1: <base date
A2: =0.22/24 * (TODAY() - A1)

Note: I assumed you'd want hours in Time format, hence the '/24' in the
formula.

If you want integral hours, delete that division.
