Hi All,

I am working with accounts receivable aging buckets, and each month I net customer deposits (which show as negatives) across other buckets from oldest to newest to offset them. Is there a formula that can handle this? The bold cells are currently what I enter manually, to offset the yellow cell customer deposit. I am thinking an If statement, but not sure? Any help would be very appreciated!

Hi,

Shouldn't the 1st adjustment (8.00) under 25.00, 30-60 Bucket, be (15.00), and the 365+ Bucket be (29.00) ??
If not, please explain your logic.

You've seen my question above, but no reply.
Assuming my post above is correct, use this:

C3:F3C3=MIN($B2-SUM($C2:C2,$B3:B3),0)

Hello thank you for the reply!

The (22) is considered a customer deposit, so that amount is fixed. We spread it across our oldest aging, so that our 365+ bucket doesnt look artificially low. Basically we offset it against the other buckets starting with the 120-365 bucket, and onto the next bucket, and the next, until it is totally used up. The original picture I posted is how the 'adjustment' line looks when the deposit is spread, and it nets the 120-365 bucket to 0, the 60-120 bucket to 0, and the 30-60 bucket to 17.
