    equation for different levels of profit share for higher number of participants

    Good afternoon all,

    I am trying to model the following:

    My company is offering to deliver a course for a school. We want to offer different levels of profit share depending upon how many students they can sign up. So we want to offer them 20% for the first 10 students, 25% for the 11-15th students and 30% for any 16 and above.

    Can any of you help me with the equation that would capture this? I'm sure it's a rather easy function. I just can't seem to figure it out.

    A million thanks!

    James

    Hi and welcome to the forum

    This sounds fairly easy, using 3 nested IF()'s maybe, with your data in A1, something like...
    =A1*0.8+IF(A1>10,(A1-10)*0.95,IF(A1>15,(A1-15)*0.95,0))
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools

    Assume your list of students in Column A. Assume your tuition is in G1. In B1, type this formula

    =IF(COUNTA(A1:A30)<=10,0.2*G1,IF(AND(COUNTA(A1:A30)<16,COUNTA(A1:A30)>10),0.25*G1,0.3*G1))

    EDIT: FDibbins types faster. Two good alternatives for you.
