    Multiple Criteria Calculation both Criteria sit in the one column in multiple locations.

    Im trying to find an efficient way to calculate a weighted total in the attached spreadsheet.

    My issue is that the criteria exist within the same column so i have tried a criteria based sumproduct with array but having no luck.

    There is a lengthy way to do it i have written the layout of the result below.

    (Business A (Margin * Sales) + Business B (Margin * Sales) + Business C (Margin * Sales)) / Sumif (Sales)

    But the issue is my actual work sheet has about 20 businesses, so this will be a very inefficient method to do this.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    Try this in B18

    =SUMPRODUCT(--($A$3:$A$18="% Margin"),($B$5:$B$20),($B$3:$B$18))/SUMPRODUCT(($A$3:$A$15="Retail Sales")*($B$3:$B$15))

    Note that the B range (in red) is OFFSET to reference the "Retail Sales" values.

    The "--" simply converts TRUE/FALSE to 1/0

    Re: Multiple Criteria Calculation both Criteria sit in the one column in multiple location

    this will work just as well

    =SUMPRODUCT(($A$3:$A$13="% Margin")*($B$5:$B$15)*($B$3:$B$13))/SUMPRODUCT(($A$3:$A$15="Retail Sales")*($B$3:$B$15))

    Sorry for off-topic interjection:

    Although there is no official rule regarding this behavior, we request that wherever possible both the question AND the answer be provided in substantive detail here within the thread. An attached workbook is an excellent aid for posing a question and offering a solution, but solely doing that with no in thread explanation makes it difficult for researchers to understand or consider the Q & A of this thread without downloading what may be a pointless doc to them, if they can do that at all. Doing that also hides the content from search engines so others may never benefit from this.

    I'm sure you understand, and we look forward to seeing you post your formulas/macros in your posts for the searching benefit of all.

    Thanks again for all your hard work here!
