    Point Out:If then formula

    Hello, im working on a spreadsheet to help keep up with my bonuses. I need a formula that would calculate that if i am 90% to objective, i receive $35 per each percentage point over 90%. I also need to be able to input weather i am an "MVP" which gives an additional $360 at 90% and an additional $24 dollars per percentage point up to 120% or $1080.

    thanks for the help!

    Does the first bonus have a limit?

    OK, say A1 is your % and B1 has MVP. You can use =MAX(A1-.9,0)*3500+IF(B1="MVP",Max(MIN(A1,1.2)-.9,0)*2400+360,0)

    Assuming . . .

    A1: holds "MVP" ( without quotes)
    B1: percentage attained (i.e. 0.9, 0.92, etc.)

    then perhaps in C1:

    =IF($B1>=0.9,(($B1-0.9)*100)*35,0)+IF($A1="MVP",360+IF(($B1-0.9)*24*100>1080,1080,($B1-0.9)*100*24),0)

    Do you know . . . ?

    Thanks, i entered it in and the first bonus is working but the MVP bonus is not. I entered in numbers at 95%, and not being mvp i was at 175, but being mvp i was at $1255, when it should be 295. Thanks for your help!

    At 95%, you should be at $655, shouldn't you?

    re: Point Out:If then formula

    ok im needing to ad this to the formula as qualifers, u can use the one i posted above to have the correct cells, i thought i could just ad it in the front but its giving me an error.

    =IF(AND(D26>0,F26>0,F21>0,D21>=3.5)

    here is how i attempted to enter it

    IF(AND(D26>0,F26>0,F21>0,D21>=3.5)($B26>=0.9,(($B26-0.9)*100)*35,0)+IF($B27="MVP",360+IF(($B26-0.9)*24*100>1080,1080,($B26-0.9)*100*24),0)

    re: Point Out:If then formula

    You need a comma between the end parenthesis of the AND statement and the rest of the formula and then start another IF statement. Like this:
    IF(AND(D26>0,F26>0,F21>0,D21>=3.5),IF($B26>=0.9,($B26-0.9)*100*35,0)+IF($B27="MVP",360+IF(($B26-0.9)*24*100>1080,1080,($B26-0.9)*100*24),0),0)
    Also, I don't think this formula is really correct. It doesn't take into account the 360 you'll be getting as a bonus when setting the upper limit. Put in you being an MVP with a 1.25 completion. This formula will return $120 more than you should be getting.

    re: Point Out:If then formula

    I tried the formula you posted there and when i enter it in it just enters it in as text not as a formula, also i tried manually entering in the ,IF i was missing and it does the same thing. here is what i entered.

    IF(AND(D26>0,F26>0,F21>0,D21>=3.5),IF($B26>=0.9,($B26-0.9)*100*35,0)+IF($B27="MVP",360+IF(($B26-0.9)*24*100>1080,1080,($B26-0.9)*100*24),0),0)

    re: Point Out:If then formula

    Copied and pasted yours without the = in front of it. Sorry, assumed you knew all formulas require = in front. My other objection to the formula still holds. Essentially, as it is, the upper limit is 1.35, not 1.2.

    re: Point Out:If then formula

    ok i just did the math and it seems to be working, 1.25 with mvp gives 2425, thats the 360 for 90% and 2065 for 35 points above 90%. without mvp it gives 1225.
