Here's the setup. I can send the spread sheet over as well.

Column A: Listed vertically an infinite amount: Harden, Westbrook, Jokic, George, Irving, Mitchell, Gobert, Walker, Gasol, Faried

Column B: Listed vertically an infinite amount: Salary associated with player in column A: 12900, 11000, 10800, 9900, 9600, 8800, 8500, 8100, 7800, 6900
Column K: Listed vertically an infinite amount: 253.85, 236.17, 217.55, 193.28, 186.89, 178.72, 172.06, 165.33, 158.9, 145.33

With this data I am looking to maximize the points in column K of the associated players. But I only have $50,000 to spend. So with the $50,000 (data in column B) I am looking to pick the players that give me the most points under the constraint of only spending 50,000. The results will be shown beginning in column N3.

Thank you!
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
