    IF, SUMPRODUCT, VLookup-most efficient?

    Not sure what function would be best to use for my formula IFs, SUMPRODUCT, VLookup or combination.

    Please review the attached file. I'm trying to get a daily average sale based on the monthly number divided by the number of business days for that month.

    Thank you.

    Thank you so much. It is what I needed. Could you explain to me what the -RIGHT and the 4 represent?

    Thanks again

    Thanks for the feedback. Happy it worked.

    This is what RIGHT(B6,4) does:
    Since your text says: July (22). RIGHT(B6,4) will pick out the first 4 characters from the right: (22). Since within finance (22) is the same as -22, if I take -(22) that is the same as --22 = +22.

    As long as the last 4 characters are (nn), the formula will work. But if you want to change things, just make a new post to the forum and someone will help you.
