    Tiered Bonus (not percentage)

    Good Afternoon Excel Gurus:

    Bonus Worksheet.xlsx

    I work for a homebuilder and have team members incentivized to each sale. I need a little help figuring out the formula to compute the total bonus. I've attached a sample with some dummy data (the real data will be exported automatically).

    Through search I was able to find many examples pertaining to %s, but nothing like what I am looking for.

    Thanks in advance for your help. I'm still an excel 101 user...

    Many thanks,
    Phillip

    Assuming that 4 units is the maximum bonus
    First insert a new row at the beginning of your bonus table for 0, $0

    Then in C11 Copied to other cells
    =VLOOKUP(B11, $B$2:$C$6,2)
    Does that work for you?

    Just taking a guess at how the bonus table is applied.
    Is this what you are looking for?

    Re: Tiered Bonus (not percentage)

    Thanks for the responses:

    Its never until the first responses that you realize how vague your question was...

    Sale 1 is worth $75, 2 is worth $100, 3 is worth $150, 4 and beyond is worth $250

    So, 2 sales would be $175 ($75 + $100)

    3 sales $225 ($75 + $100 + $150)

    4 sales $475 ($75 + $100 + $150 + $250)

    5 sales $725 ($75 + $100 + $150 + $250 + $250)

    Etc....

    Does that clarify?

    Try this formula

    =IF(B11<5, SUM($C$2:INDEX($C$2:$C$6, MATCH(B11, $B$2:$B$6,0))), SUM($C$2:$C$6)+ (B11-4)*250)
    where you have inserted the 0 row in your bonus table as I suggested.
