Split Value between each Groups

Hello Users,

Please help in solving the following - I have a data with groups (A,B,C...).

A total value is required to be split between the groups. Each group has FTEs and this FTEs will be dynamically changed.

In spite of change in FTEs, the total value should be spilled across each group depending on the size of the group.

If a group is having only one FTE, then the minimum total value split should be 150 and if a group has 0 FTE, then it should be excluded and the distribution of total values to be done for the other groups.

Please help

Thank you for the link.

Thanks for your formula. I tried with the formula, when I changed the group value to 1, the minimum amount should come to 150. and the total distribution across group value should sum up to 213000.

But now in the attached sheet, the group value for 1 (NAME I) is coming to 25.83, but it should be 150 and the balance (213000 - 150 = 212850) to be distributed in other rows.

The formula which you shared gives the same result when I use the below formula

The difficult part for me is to get 150 for minimum value 1 and the total points to be distributed across the row where the total should be equal to the Total Points

Maybe try

=IF(D4<2,$I$4*(D4>0),($I$3-SUMIF($D$4:$D$52,1)*$I$4)/($D$53-SUMIF($D$4:$D$52,1))*D4)

or
=IF(D4<$I$4/$I$3*$D$53,$I$4,($I$3-COUNTIFS($D$4:$D$52,"<"&$I$4/$I$3*$D$53)*$I$4)/($D$53-SUMIF($D$4:$D$52,"<"&$I$4/$I$3*$D$53))*D4)

Thanks for your support. The 1st formula works better. But the issue is for group value 1 it's giving 150. But if the Group value is 2 then its giving less than 150.

The minimum distribution across the row should be 150 when the Group value is 150. so if the group value is more than 1 then the points allocated should be more than 150 as 150 is the minimum distribution.

Hope you got my requirement.

@ Josephteh, Thanks for your support. I have checked the formula again the same logic as mentioned above, the minimum distribution to be 150 for a row. So for 1 it should be 150 as miniimum so if the group value has more than 1 FTE then the total points should be >150.

Why we can't able to stick the total to total points mentioned as FTE changes. Some one told about linear distribution but I have no clue on applying the same
