    Calculating Increase% only on Percentage values

    Good afternoon there,

    I am curious which formula can be used to come to a total % increase when only having % values as a dataset.

    so as per attached, 3 waves of increases and know based on those percentages the total increase % needs to be calculated.

    I am working in a Microsoft 365 environment

    Re: Calculating Increase% only on Percentage values

    I have looked at your workbook and am really not at all sure what you need help with. What is wrong with the formulae you have used? Can you add in expected results (manually calculated) to show what you are aiming for?

    the aim is to work only with the % to come to the 62% total increase without the help of the mentioned values.

    Re: Calculating Increase% only on Percentage values

    Which are the 'mentioned values'? What exactly do you want this to look like?

    Please update your forum profile to MS365. Thanks.

    changed the setting is now reading MS365

    as for the query, so in the actual working environemnt only the % as in column C are mentioned. The goal is to use the % in column C to come to the 62% overall increase.

    Try this:

    =LET(wa,13%,wb,15%,wc,25%,ca,D1*(1+wa),cb,ca*(1+wb),cc,cb*(1+wc),cc-D1)

    or this:

    =LET(ca,D1*(1+C2),cb,ca*(1+C3),cc,cb*(1+C4),cc-D1)

    lucky match actually needed to change to:
    =LET(wa,13%,wb,15%,wc,25%,ca,D1*(1+wa),cb,ca*(1+wb),cc,cb*(1+wc),cc-1)
