cell1+cell2<cell3 then (cell1+cell2) X 0.062
cell1+cell2cell3 then (cell3-cell1) X 0.062


How would I write this formula?

IF(condition,value_if_true,value_if_false)

=IF(cell1+cell2<cell3,(cell1+cell2)*.062,(cell3-cell1)*.062) Note that
your problem statement doesn't specify what to do if cell1+cell2=cell3.
I've put this condition in with the case where cell1+cell2cell3. Adapt
as needed.

I just realized that if cell1 is greater than cell3 then the results
should be zero. How would I account for that?

Nest the above IF function inside of a another IF function
=IF(cell1cell3,0,IF(...)) Note that Excel is limited to 7 nested
IF's, so if your decision tree has many more branches to it, you'll
need to come up with another approach.
