Hello,
I have figured out how to allocate the cost across the different months but I want the very next cell in the array to have a different calculation based sum of the array. I am sure that I am not explaining this well. Example: I want the number in a cell (say 200,000) to be allocated over duration indicated in a cell (duration 7) then the very next cell (8th month) to but the sum of the 7 months array subtracted from the cell holding the 200,000.

Here are my formulas:
=IF(COLUMNS($R68:R68)>$P68,"",($I68*0.64/$P68)) This is in the first 7 cells
=I68-(SUM(R68:V68)) this is in the 8 cell

Is there a way to combine this so it would be automatically calculated no matter what the duration number is.
 
This is would be correct.
where does this 0.64 comes from? does that mean always 64% of amount to be distributed over x number of months mentioned in column P?
if the above is true , the balance to be placed in the cell next to last month would always be 36% of column I?

Hi - I appreciate all the help you have been trying to provide for me just was curious if you were still working on a solution?

Excel Facts

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
I think the UNIQUE function is exclusive to O365 insider members currently and won't be released for a few months if I am correct.

So if you had months number = 7, would you then fill Jan-Jul with figures, and put the final formula in for August?

I wanted to thank you for trying to provide a solution for me. I appreciate any and all efforts greatly.
