Help with this formula please.
I am trying to produce a spreadsheet that will calculate certain expenses to
help highlight the cost of living. If someone could help with the following example: Question 1: Is this a joint application Y/N ? - answer in box F43 So if the answer is 'N' then a figure of $808.00 is added If the answer is 'Y' then a figure of $1,250.00 is added Question2: How many dependants do you have? - answer in box F44 if 1 then $225.00 is added if 2 then $225.00 x 2 is added if 3 then $225.00 x 3 is added etc Question 3: How many cars do you own? - answer in F45 if 1 then 370.00 is added if 2 then 370.00 x 2 is added if 3 then 370.00 x 3 is added etc I then want to populate Q53 with the combined total of the answers given above. Thank you in advance for any help given. :) Cheers Scott |

Scoober, You can simply use an If/Then statement
=IF(F43=YES,1250,808.00) The formula is divided in 3 parts. Statement, true, false. For more than 2 answers you might just =F44*255.00 this will multiply the answer by the set number. You can simply then do a SUM for the column to arrive at your total or use a comma to pick out certain cells. I'd suggest that these numbers may one day change so you may want to put them in a seperate cell and reference the cell to add longevity to the spreadsheet. It will save you a lot of time next year when you have to adjust it! Good luck hope I helped!
