I have a formula that uses a lot of nested IF statements and am looking for an
improved one.
Currently, I calculate my weeks supply as follows:

Row C1 D1 E1 F1
5-Jan 12-Jan 19-Jan 26-Jan
Sales 2.5 2.9 2.6 3.2
Inventory 8.0 8.7 9.1 9.4
Production 3.2 3.3 2.9 4.1
Inv + Prod 11.2 12.0 12.0 13.5

My Weeks Supply formula for Jan 5 is:

=IF(D6=SUM(D3:I3),(6+(D6-SUM(D3:I3))/J3),IF(D6=SUM(D3:H3),5+(D6-SUM(D3:H3))/I3,IF(D6=SUM(D3:G3),4+(D6-SUM(D3:G3))/H3,IF(D6=SUM(D3:F3),3+(D6-SUM(D3:E3))/G3,IF(D6=SUM(D3:E3),2+(D6-SUM(D3:F3))/F3,0)))))

The formula works, however it has its limitations. If anyone has a different
or improved one, I would appreciate sharing it with the group.

Hi Mike

Can you describe in words, what you desire.
