    Need actual value if equal or less than 5.75%

    I can't figure out how to enter a formula that will give me the actual Interest Earned (.1%-5.75%) and if the value is greater than 5.75%, then the value is 5.75%..
    The 5.75% is the Cap on growth and I have it in cell I7

    I need the Interest Earned Column formulated..

    So something like this:
    IF Interest Earned (value) is >than 0 and =or< 5.75% then whatever it is, I want that value shown,
    but if the value is > 5.75%, then the value = 5.75% (since that is the CAP)

    I have referenced the Cap in Cell I7
    I have refernced the Premium paid in Cell G7
    Market performance in Col H Cells H9-H18
    The acct value is Col I, Cells I9-I18
    And the Interest Earned is J9-J18

    Cell G7
    is the Deposit
    $100,000

    Cell I7
    is the Cap
    5.75%

    G9 Year 1
    H9 Market Perf 20.15%
    I9 Account Value + Interest
    J9 Interest Earned

    So Year one the Market is up 20.15% but I9 should show Value in Cell I7 (in this case 5.75%)

    If the market is 3% then the value in the cell I9 should be 3% (or whatever it actually is if between .1% to Cell I7,

    I want to refer to G7 and I7 so I can enter any number and have every thing be relative.

    Probably easier than the explanation. Any help is appreciated,
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Try something like:

    =Max(0,formula)

    where formula is your original formula..
    Where there is a will there are many ways.

    Thank you but I don't get it...... probably the formula.
    maybe this would help,

    If the growth exceeds the Cap (5.75%) then the value with interest is the (premium) * the cap.

    If the growth is greater than Zero and = or < than the Cap, then the value is whatever that % rate is * the premium.

    If the growth is a Negative, then the value is 0 * the premium.(no Losses)

    This is an annuity with a CAP and no downside. So the max growth is the cap and if the market is negative the interest credited is Zero, and if the growth is more than Zero or any amount up to the cap then that actual % growth is credited.

    So it's 3 things to deal with.. It may be past me.. Any formula I have is
    the Market gain*premium (h9*g7) but need to put in the parameters I have listed..
