Setting up slide scale for prices
I can't really figure out an efficient way to do this. I keep creating
nested if statements that are very long and annoying, but there has to be an easier way. Column A is quantity sold and is a numerical value anywhere between 1 and 2000, and in Column B I want to calculate total cost based on this price scale -- Pricing 1 - 10 = $2.40 11- 100 = $1.30 101 - 250 = $.60 251 - 1000 = $.20 1001 + = .12 So if someone sells 290 the first 10 are priced at $2.40, the next 90 are priced at $1.30, the next $150 are priced at $.60 and the final 40 are priced at $.20. So the total price of selling 290 = $239. Is there an easy way to set the price table in and have a small formula calculate and add the breaks? Have a good day, Ted |

=LOOKUP(A1,{1,11,101,251,1001},{2.4,1.3,0.6,0.2,0. 12})
