    Time elapsed converted to a %

    I have searched the forums and have not been successfull in finding an answer to my problem. I have a period of performance, begin date (11/01/2010) and end date(10/31/2011). I need to calculate the % of time elapsed and remaining based on today's date.

    Hi eitherorr and welcome to the forum

    Find the attached that should explain how to do it. You need to know you can subtract dates in excel and it will give the number of days between the two.

    Try

    =(TODAY()-StartDate)/(EndDate-StartDate)

    Format Output in percentage format. Based on your sample result would be 71.88%

    umm... The date and time in order for the result to be 71.88% would have to be July 20, 2011 at 3:26:12 PM....
