formula help

I am trying to figure workers comp. I know the numbers are not realistic...

This tax is calculated at $3.77 per $1000 of the projected annual salary.. The salary is 26850.00

How can I get this in to a formula

(salary/1000)*3.77

If I understand your inquiry the formula would
be =3.77*TRUNC(A1/1000) where cell A1 contains
26,850. Is 98.02 the desired result?

Didn't work!!!

ok.. before I can put in that part of the formula I have another part added. This part is a must...

=if(right(a3)+0=1

This is saying if this person is salary than I need to do the workers comp..

So when I put what you gave me after this.. like
=if(right(a3) +0=1, 3.77 *TRUNC (N3/1000)
This doesn't work...I get an error.. #name

Add an bracket to your formula. It should read

=if(right(a3)+0=1, 3.77*TRUNC (N3/1000))
