Hi All,
I am currently struggling with trying to lookup a set of numbers, which are variances both positive and negative in order of absolute amount, but retaining the negative sign when shown into the top 5 amounts. I have pasted the numbers below.
My current formula I have is =LARGE(B2:B19,1), then followed by 2, 3, 4, and 5 in the subsequent cells. However this only brings back the top 5 largest positive values onle and ignore the high negative value of (150).
When i try to add an ABS formula in, using an array, it retrieves the 150 but shows it as a posivtive number and not negative, which is how i need to show it.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Have attached my spreadsheet with my formulas.
