Cashflow Postive Lookup
I need a formula that tells me which year a project goes cashflow postive....
So lets says I have the following table: A B 1 Year Cash 2 1 -100 3 2 -75 4 3 -25 5 4 50 6 5 200 So in the case above, I would want the formula to return Year 4 (A5) as that is the first year the project goes cash flow positive. Any ideas? Thank you, |

Cashflow Postive Lookup
Try this array formula:
=INDEX(A2:A6,MATCH(MIN(IF(B2:B60,B2:B6,"")),B2:B6 ,0)) An array formula must be committed with CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER rather than just enter. If done properly, the formula will be enclosed in { }.

press ctrl+alt+shift): =INDEX(A2:A6,MATCH(TRUE,B2:B60,0)) "Eli" wrote: I need a formula that tells me which year a project goes cashflow postive....
