    Calculating daily interest accrued above a threshold

    Hi there

    I'm setting up a wages sheet for hourly paid casual staff, and I need to be able to calculate the NI (national Insurance) payments accrued by these casual staff. The staff have variable rates of pay and have variable hours across the week.

    In this example NI is paid on any earnings above £110, at 12.8%, so will tend to kick in on different days for different staff as they build up their hours

    I can find the total accrued for each staff member over the course of the week, and the total overall for all staff, without any problem. I have also found a (rather clunky) way of calculating the daily amount accrued each day by an individual member of staff as the week progresses.

    Where i am running into a brick wall is to find a neat way of finding the total of NI accrued each day as the week progresses. I'm thinking there must be some sort of financial function which could help.

    My only way of thinking is to do it for each individual and add up the values - but i don't really want extra rows and calculations in the worksheet if there is an easier way. If there isn't an easier way then the simplest way to calculate the daily amount accrued by an individual would help.

    I should think this is something that is done for any number of businesses employing hourly staff so there must be a way, mustn't there?

    Many thanks

    Hi Nick. Welcome to the forum. To make it easier for someone to find a solution, please attach a sample of your workbook - see below.

    In your attachment, you seem to add Total Gross (column K) and NI (column L). See my column O.

    But my understanding is: NI is a tax that is deducted from Total Gross under some conditions. See my column M.

    So try the following:

    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    Formulas:
    B28: =SUM(B22:B27)
    I22: =SUM(B22:H22)
    K22: =ROUND(I22*J22,2)
    L22: =MAX(0, ROUND((K22-$B$17)*$B$18,2))
    M22: =K22 - L22
    O22: =K22 + L22

    Copy B28 into C28:I28, K28:M28 and O28
    Copy I22 into I23:I26
    Copy K22 into K22:M26
    Copy O22 into O23:O26

    Note that column O is not a necessary part of the proposed solution. It only demonstrates consistency of the previous columns with Nick's calculation, which I believe is conceptually incorrect.
