Interest amounts
Hi i wonder if anyone out there can help me I have an exam on wednesday and
am confused about one area if If I have a rate of 5% in cell C1 and a investment amount of 5,000,000 in cell C2 and then a interest amount of 250,00 in C3, then i have a table of varing interest amounts in B7:B22 how can i work out the formula in C6 and copy it down the rest of the table. I hope this is clear to someone Many thanks Debbie |

What do you want the formula in C6 to calculate? HTH Otto

Sorry I didn't explain it very well,
the interest amount is 250,000 and the table is varing % rates and i want to work out what the interest amount would be dependant on the % rate.

We still have a problem. Tell me what is constant and what is variable.
You say that the interest amount is 250,000 then you say you want to calculate the interest amount as a function of interest rate. If the interest amount is 250,000 then the interest amount is 250,000. Period. If the interest amount is 250,000 for a 5% interest rate, then the interest amount is 250,000 for only that one value of interest rate. I will assume that the investment is a constant at 5 million and you want a formula to calculate the interest amount for varying interest rates. If B1 holds the investment amount, B6 and down holds the varying interest rates, then put this formula in C6 and drag it down as far as the interest rates go: =$B$1*B6 HTH Otto "duckie71" <u24916@uwe wrote in message news:64527ea89023c@uwe...

Note that for the formula to work, the interest rates must be shown as decimals, like .05, .06 etc. Or the cells must be formatted as Percentage and the entries are then 5, 6, etc. HTH Otto "duckie71" <u24916@uwe wrote in message news:64527ea89023c@uwe...
