    Post I want to autopopulate column B with a price based on 70% margin.

    I want to autopopulate column B (expected revenue) with a price based on 70% margin. So if the cost is 97.90 and the margin is 70% the column B should autopopulateimage 1.JPG

    Re: I want to autopopulate column B with a price based on 70% margin.

    So, is the cost in column A, and is this the cost price to you? If so, you can put this formula in B2:

    =ROUND(A2*1.7,2)

    then copy down.

    Hope this helps.

    You have added a picture after I read your first post, and I can see that your cost price is in column C, and it looks like it starts in cell C5. If that is the case, then put this formula in B5:

    =ROUND(C5*1.7,2)

    and copy down.

    I'm not sure how you get the percentages shown in column F on your picture, because if you buy something for just under $100 and sell it for $350, that is a mark-up of over 350% (i.e. D5/C5).

    Hope this helps.

    Pete
