If you put the number of tardies in A1, you can use this formula to get your
total money!

=(A1*(A1+1)/2)*100

If you can't go over 5500, you can use this variation:
=MIN(5500,(A1*(A1+1)/2)*100)

(10 tardies results in $5500)

I'm trying to write a formula with the following data using Excel '03:

If a student is tardy once, then it costs him $100. *Twice, then it costs
him $200 and the previous $100 and $200 need to be added to show that it cost
him $300 total. *If a student is tardy three times, then it costs him $300,
plus the previous $100 and $200, for a grand total of $600. *I would like
this formula to go up to ten tardies and not use Visual Basic. or tables.

Thank you!

Steve
