    URGENT PLS HELP: Solver, "could not find a feasible solution"

    Dear All Experts,

    I am able to use the Solver to derive the Return % (i.e. my target cell) in Cell E5, while the constraint is set as $E$9 <= $F$9.

    However, I encounter the captioned error message when I change the constraint as $E$8 <= $F$8.

    Do you have any idea on how to resolve it?

    Please kindly advise, thanks.

    Best Regards,

    Freddy

    The problem is not with solver but with your set constraint as solver can’t match that that value i.e. E8 <= 25 000.

    The lowest E8 value seems to be 147903 when E5 is -150 %.

    Changing the E5 value to -160 % will make E8 = 150546 and testing with E5 -140 % will also set E8 value to 150546.
