Hello all,

I require a little help with forecasting the 'cost' per day based on a timeline.

I have created a project timeline which each row (task) has a start and end date.

Each task has a value (cost).

Each task requires a 20% deposit, 4 weeks before the start date.

The remaining 80% cost needs to be distributed evenly to the amount of workdays between the start date and end date.

So, if a task costs $1,000 and starts on 01/01/2023 and finishes on 01/20/2023, there are 21 network days between these dates.

I need 20% so $200 to be paid 4 weeks before the start date. and then $800 to be divided by 21 working days. equating to $38.10

I need the $38.10 to be shown on each workday (network day).

Ultimately, the goal is to calculate how much each day is costing based on totality of the tasks within the project.

I have attached a screenshot of my timeline. The timeline uses conditional formatting to show when each task is active.

If you need anymore information to help solve my problem, let me know.

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.
Would you be kind enough to post the worksheet portion using the xl2bb add in? The forum needs to completely recreate you data to try to figure out a solution. The link is below. If that is not possible, then please just post a table of the data. If you have formulas that reference other sheets, those sheet portions should be posted as well. Thanks in advance for helping the forum help you.
