I know the description is vague but I am not sure how to explain this one. I am working on a sheet that has all the information required BUT I am having trouble figuring out the formula to do the math.
I want to do the following with the following information:
Columns D and E are fixed numbers which equal the cost of the items. To hopefully make this simple the package deal at cost would be D4+E4+E4=F4
What I am trying to do is take O to be a Fixed Percentage of increase of E4 (Qty 1) and it provide the Dollar Amount in N4.
Then have M4 create a Auto Percentage and L4 equal the dollar amount increase of D4. All of this using a fixed amount in P4 which would be $60.
ITem 1(Fixed)Item 2(Fixed)Item 1 ( New Price )Item 1 ( Auto % )Item 2 qty 1( New Price )Item 2 Qty 1 (Fixed % )PKG Total(Fixed)
Item1+Item2+Item2
17.2217.5419.6614.18%20.1715.00%60.00
14.79
17.5419.6632.90%20.1715.00%60.00
12.3817.5419.6558.75%20.1715.00%60.00

Item Once Dollar amount changes, Item 2 Dollar amount changes ( Base on Product Number ) In this Example Item 2 happens to be the same Product Number so its dollar amount is same in 3 fields... The Idea is to keep all Product numbers to have the same % and $ amounts and then have Item 1's % and $ amounts change to equal the $60 mark.
Anyone have an Idea.. I have tried a few and come up with BIG errors...

As always any assistance is greatly appreciated!!

Thank you!
 

Excel Facts

How to create a cell-sized chart?
Tiny charts, called Sparklines, were added to Excel 2010. Look for Sparklines on the Insert tab.
If I understood you correctly, here is a formula for column M (Item 1 ( Auto % )):

=(P2-2*ROUND(E2*(1+O2),2))/D2-1

For column L (Item 1 ( New Price )), use =ROUND(D2*(1+M2),2)

Tetra201, I think you are on the right track but hitting the same wall that I am. I am taking a good look at this and i think i goofed my description.
Item 1 Item2 are fixed they are the "Base" price, I am "fixing" the Item 2 Fixed Percent at 15% to equal the "new" fixed Item 2 Price at $20.17.
The "Package Price" cannot exceed $60, So I need to find the new Item 1 Price and Item 1 Percent.
In the end Item 1 New $ + Item 2 New $ + Item 2 New $ should equal Package Price of $60
When I use your formulas, which are way cleaner then mine, I get the Item 1 New $ as the same as the Item 1 Fixed price(base) and a 3 digit percentage price.

I am not hitting any wall; I am trying to help you.

You have to clearly identify 4 preset parameters, all others derive from them.

For example, "I have preset parameters in D2, E2, N2, and P2. What would be the formulas for L2, M2, and O2?"

O2 Would be fixed number no Formula just straight 15% ( as an Example from Above )
M2 is open waiting for a percentage of L2, but L2 is dependent on the Remainder from N2+N2-P2 (P2 is a constant at $60)
I found a long about way of finding the info i can try to post the sample here:
Formulas First:
=SUM(D4+R4)=IFERROR((L4-D4)/ABS(L4),0)=E4*(1+O4)0.1560=SUM(N4+N4+D4)=SUM(P4-Q4)=SUM(N4+N4+L4)
=SUM(D5+R5)=IFERROR((L5-D5)/ABS(L5),0)=E5*(1+O5)0.1560=SUM(N5+N5+D5)=SUM(P5-Q5)=SUM(N5+N5+L5)
=SUM(D6+R6)=IFERROR((L6-D6)/ABS(L6),0)=E6*(1+O6)0.1560=SUM(N6+N6+D6)=SUM(P6-Q6)=SUM(N6+N6+L6)
=SUM(D7+R7)=IFERROR((L7-D7)/ABS(L7),0)=E7*(1+O7)0.1560=SUM(N7+N7+D7)=SUM(P7-Q7)=SUM(N7+N7+L7)
=SUM(D8+R8)=IFERROR((L8-D8)/ABS(L8),0)=E8*(1+O8)0.1560=SUM(N8+N8+D8)=SUM(P8-Q8)=SUM(N8+N8+L8)
=SUM(D9+R9)=IFERROR((L9-D9)/ABS(L9),0)=E9*(1+O9)0.1560=SUM(N9+N9+D9)=SUM(P9-Q9)=SUM(N9+N9+L9)
=SUM(D10+R10)=IFERROR((L10-D10)/ABS(L10),0)=E10*(1+O10)0.1560=SUM(N10+N10+D10)=SUM(P10-Q10)=SUM(N10+N10+L10)
=SUM(D11+R11)=IFERROR((L11-D11)/ABS(L11),0)=E11*(1+O11)0.1560=SUM(N11+N11+D11)=SUM(P11-Q11)=SUM(N11+N11+L11)
=SUM(D12+R12)=IFERROR((L12-D12)/ABS(L12),0)=E12*(1+O12)0.1660=SUM(N12+N12+D12)=SUM(P12-Q12)=SUM(N12+N12+L12)
=SUM(D13+R13)=IFERROR((L13-D13)/ABS(L13),0)=E13*(1+O13)0.1660=SUM(N13+N13+D13)=SUM(P13-Q13)=SUM(N13+N13+L13)
=SUM(D14+R14)=IFERROR((L14-D14)/ABS(L14),0)=E14*(1+O14)0.1660=SUM(N14+N14+D14)=SUM(P14-Q14)=SUM(N14+N14+L14)
=SUM(D15+R15)=IFERROR((L15-D15)/ABS(L15),0)=E15*(1+O15)0.1660=SUM(N15+N15+D15)=SUM(P15-Q15)=SUM(N15+N15+L15)
=SUM(D16+R16)=IFERROR((L16-D16)/ABS(L16),0)=E16*(1+O16)0.1660=SUM(N16+N16+D16)=SUM(P16-Q16)=SUM(N16+N16+L16)
=SUM(D17+R17)=IFERROR((L17-D17)/ABS(L17),0)=E17*(1+O17)0.1660=SUM(N17+N17+D17)=SUM(P17-Q17)=SUM(N17+N17+L17)
=SUM(D18+R18)=IFERROR((L18-D18)/ABS(L18),0)=E18*(1+O18)0.1660=SUM(N18+N18+D18)=SUM(P18-Q18)=SUM(N18+N18+L18)
