Looking for function or formula to calculate number that is revers
I am looking for formula or function that will help to calculate the number
that can be discounted by percentage back to the original number I have. For example, my original number is 100, and the discount percent is 40%. I am looking for a formula that will result in 166.67. Where 166.67 - (166.67 * 40%) will result in my original number of 100. Another example is Input 100, and Discount 60%, the output of the function or formula would be 250 (where 250 - (250 * 60%) = 100). Note that this function is available in some of the business calculator, label as MU in Citizen calculator. Does anyone know of a function in excel or a formula where I can achieve this? Thanks a lot.. |

Thanks a lot.. I don't know if I completely understand what you are after or if you are just trying to make this harder than it is, but I have always done =100/60%= 166.67; =100/40%=250. Seems to work for me. |
Hi
=100/(100%-40%) or =100/(1-0.4) -- When sending mail, use address arvil<attarkon.ee Arvi Laanemets "Ken" wrote in message ...
