AVERAGESIFS Function - average cells that fall within a date rangeand meet additional criteria
 

I am trying to find an average purchase price (listed in column H) for
purchase dates (column A) that occur between 11/01/1998 and 12/01/1998
and an additional criteria - that column G has "Pre-Period".

Right now I have this formula:

=AVERAGEIFS
(H2:H809,A2:A5121,"=11/1/1998",A2:A5121,"<12/01/1998",G2:G809,"Pre-
Period")


This is returning #VALUE

Any suggestions on how to make this work?

THANK YOU!

Try this array formula

=AVERAGE(IF((A2:A5121=--"1998-11-01")*(A2:A5121<--"1998-12-01")*(G2:G5121="Pre-Period"),H2:H5121))

AVERAGESIFS Function - average cells that fall within a date range and meet additional criteria
 

=AVERAGEIFS(H2:H809,A2:A5121,"=11/1/1998",A2:A5121,"<12/01/1998",G2:G809,"Pre-Period")

Your ranges aren't the same size:

H2:H809
A2:A5121
G2:G809

Use cells to hold the criteria:

A1 = 11/1/1998
B1 = 12/1/1998
C1 = Pre-Period

=AVERAGEIFS(H2:H5121,A2:A5121,"="&A1,A2:A5121,"<" &B1,G2:G5121,C1)

Make sure the ranges are all the same size.
