    Formula to compute backwards from net salary to gross salary in Uganda

    I have attached a worksheet with Formulas in the Cells of PAYE and NSSF.

    I need someone to help me create a formula that works backwards from Net Salary as the starting Input data and the formula generates the NSSF,PAYE and Gross pay

    Thanks

    HI. It's pretty hard to go backwards but using goal seek you can work out any Net value to give you the gross based on the formula you already have in your spreadsheet.

    I used a macro (using goal seek) to work out a value for you. Run the macro by pressing the button and it will fill in columns I, J, K & L for you. Only enter values into the popup box after pressing the button

    I saw he helped you already

    I looked on your worksheet, just wondering why nested IF and not IFS in the PAYE column?

    you can look for IFS here: exceljet.net/excel-functions/excel-ifs-function

    @Deadpool

    If the Office version indicated by OP is correct ( 2007), then IFS was not available
