Hi Robina,
The new total is: =CostPrice*1.8 you don't even need to calculate the intermediate value, unless you need to display it. -- Cheers macropod [Microsoft MVP - Word] "Robina" wrote in message ...

Hi Robina
The generalised formula to do this is Cost Price * (1 + Percentage) With cost price in A1 =A1*(1+80%) -- Regards Roger Govier "Robina" wrote in message ...
