    Question Average if of unique values with conditions

    Hi all,

    I have a table of rail fares for a set of Origin-Destinations. At a high-level, each fare is either an Advance ticket or a Single ticket (but a lot of fares have restrictions on the train operators you can use, so some Advance tickets for a given origin-destination at a given fare price may appear more than once, creating effectively duplicate entries). A given Origin-Destination could also have several different Advance ticket prices (as prices for a train ticket can change as the day of travel approaches).

    I'm after a formula which computes an average fare for each unique Origin-Destination and ticket type (eg. average Advance fare to travel from London Euston to Manchester), but I want to omit duplicates (identical Origin-Destination, ticket type, and fare price) from the calculation.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

    Example with expected answers provided - red text cells are the example of duplicate, identical fares.

    Your averaging is not accurate.

    Try this:

    =LET(u,UNIQUE(E2:E9),HSTACK(u,ROUND(AVERAGEIFS(D2:D9,E2:E9,u),2)))

    Hi Ali,

    Thanks but this is still including both instances of £5.50 Leeds-Bradford Advance tickets, I'd like it to skip over duplicates

    This proposal is employs a helper column (F) which may be moved and/or hidden for aesthetic purposes.
    The formula in column F is: =COUNTIFS(D$2:D2,D2,E$2:E2,E2)
    The formula for column H is: =AVERAGEIFS(D$2:D$9,E$2:E$9,G2,F$2:F$9,1)
    Let us know if you have any questions.

    Re: Average if of unique values with conditions

    I do not know the BYROW formula that well, but I got it to work here. I also put this together piecemeal so I assume someone can reduce it, BUT, it seems to work. With this solution you do not need anything in column E or Column G.

    Clear all cells from G2:H5 and put this formula in cell G2:

    =LET(
    uOD,UNIQUE(A2:A9&" - "&B2:B9&"_"&C2:C9),
    uArray,UNIQUE(HSTACK(A2:A9&B2:B9&C2:C9,D2:D9)),
    HSTACK(uOD,BYROW(UNIQUE(INDEX(uArray,,1)),LAMBDA(x,AVERAGE(FILTER(INDEX(uArray,,2),x=INDEX(uArray,,1)))))))

    see workbook attached.

    Actually, to make the formula a little easier to edit, you can try this:

    =LET(
    rngA,A2:A9,rngB,B2:B9,rngC,C2:C9,rngD,D2:D9,
    uOD,UNIQUE(rngA&" - "&rngB&"_"&rngC),
    uArray,UNIQUE(HSTACK(rngA&rngB&rngC,rngD)),
    HSTACK(uOD,BYROW(UNIQUE(INDEX(uArray,,1)),LAMBDA(x,AVERAGE(FILTER(INDEX(uArray,,2),x=INDEX(uArray,,1)))))))

    This way if the range of your data-set changes, you just need to change them once.

    Thanks Jete, Greg, Hans and Czeslaw, this is all great stuff. Really appreciate all your suggestions. In the interest of simplicity (and knowing nothing about Power Query), Hans' solution looks cleanest, though Jete's is easiest to understand.
