    calculating different percentages depending on amount

    I'd appreciate help with a formula

    I need a formula to calculate the following

    4.5% of any amount up to and equal to $41,100.00 PLUS 6.00% on any amount above $41,100.

    ie $20,000 would be (20,000 x .045) $900.00

    ie $50,000 would be [(41,100 x .05) + (8,900 x .060)] $2,383.50

    Thanks Peter

    Here's one which may work. Just substitute A1 with the cell your information is in.

    =IF(A1<=41100,A1*.045,(41100*.045)+((A1-41100)*.06))

    didn't work

    THe formula worked for amount $41,100 or less but didn't for amounts above.

    At first I thought it was because of a wrong percentage in the second half of the formula but that wasn't it.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated

    Thanks Peter

    Hi Peter,

    Looks like
    =min(amount,41100)*0.045 + (max(amount-41100,0))*0.060

    If A1 contains the amount then
    enter: =IF(A1>41100,1849.5+(A1-41100)*0.06,0.045*A1)

    Or did you mean:
    =IF(A1<=41100,A1*.045,(A1*.045)+((A1-41100)*.06)) ?
