    Unhappy Increasing Discount Formula for Ordering Larger Prints

    Hello, my name is Alec and I work for a sign shop called The Banner Factory. I'm a graphic designer and am more creative than I am mathematical so I'm kind of stuck here.

    I'm trying to make us a price sheet that will add a discount for increasingly larger-sized orders. We want to start at $10 a square foot and increase to $5 once we get to 25 square feet or more. For example: 1 square foot costs $10, and 25 square feet will cost $125.

    I need a formula to create all the prices in between those amounts, then after 25 square feet all items are $5 a square foot.

    Can anyone help me with a formula for this? I'd greatly appreciate it.

    Thank you.

    Build a table as shown below.

    Data Range
    A
    B
    1
    Size
    Price/sq ft
    2
    1

    55

    115
    25
    24
    120
    26
    25
    125

    Then use the Vlookup function to find the price per square foot. I put the size in E2 with the formula in F2

    Size Price
    10 =VLOOKUP(E2,$A$2:$B$26,2,0)
