    Staggered sum product formula

    Hey all,

    I'm working on a staggered time cash flow project. I'm trying to figure out a better way of calculating the formula in the yellow cells of the attached. The current formula works, but it is extremely manual and not very flexible. I'm 100% positive there is a better way of doing it, but have hit a mental block.

    Any ideas?

    The request should be pretty clear in the attached. ie find a better, more efficient formula for the yellow cells. I am not married to the current layout, and would actually like to put some things in Excel tables in case I want to do pivots or charts later.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Cheers.

    Hmmm, I have no idea what you're doing but you're effectively multiplying two arrays but the second is reversed so
    Put this in B8 and copy across

    Place the following formula in B6 =SUMPRODUCT($B6:B6,N(OFFSET($B17:B17,0,COLUMN(B17)-COLUMN($B17:B17))))
    Place the following formula in B7 =SUMPRODUCT($B7:B7,N(OFFSET($B18:B18,0,COLUMN(B18)-COLUMN($B18:B18))))*-1
    copy B6:B7 and paste it on the other columns

    I wouldn't put this formula in row 6 though. Only 8 and 7.
