    Question Interest formula

    Hello,

    I am trying to calculate interest on a sheet but my formula is still on a very beginner level. Can someone please replace the first () where I basically just added up numbers with a formula to pick the numbers up from above?

    Formulas are in column E

    Thank you!

    This should do it for you.

    For the 1st calc (E3)...
    =SUM($C$3:C3)*$E$1*31/365
    for the others, try this, copied down...
    =SUM($C$3:C4,$F$3:F3)*$E$1*30/365

    I notice that you use 31 (days?) for Jan, but then 30 (days?) for all subsequent months?
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)

    Thank you!

    That is a mistake .. is it possible to let excel decide how many days it is as I have the month in Column A?

    Sure, swap 30 (etc) with DAY(A3)...
    For the 1st calc (E3)...
    =SUM($C$3:C3)*$E$1*DAY(A3)/365
    for the others, try this, copied down...
    =SUM($C$3:C4,$F$3:F3)*$E$1*DAY(A4)/365


    DAY(A3)
