    2 Percentage Calculation applied to one cell

    Hi,
    I'm very new at this.
    I would like to multiply column 1&2, then multiply that value by column 3 percentage value to give me a discount $$$ amount in column 5. I can get that far! The trouble is in some cases I need to multiply the previous result by an additional percentage amount in column 4, then they All still need to total in column 5???
    Is that possible and or how???

    Try this formula in column 5, this is how you explained it

    Re: 2 Percentage Calculation applied to one cell

    Really Sorry if I'm not explaining this correctly. These formulas didn't work. Let me explain once more.

    H I J K L M
    Hours Hour Rate % Discount Extra % Discount Discount Amount Subtotal
    10 $100.00 10% 7% #REF!

    So in most cases I will only need the discount amount to be 10% which would show $100 in column L and $900 in column M. But in some cases I need to deduct an additional 7% off of the already discounted 10% value, which in the sample above I would need 7% off of the $900. So in this example I want to see $163.00 in column L and $837.00 in Column M.
    I hope this is clear and thank you for the help.
