I'm looking to project cashflows for each month for various client payment terms. For example, if the terms are Monthly, then the client is paying 12 equal amounts commencing from the date when first due. If the terms are 30/30/30/10, the client is paying 30% in Month1, 30% in Month3, 30% in Month6 and the final 10% in Month12. The sample below provides the correct numbers (calculated manually for demonstration), but how could this be achieved with formulas?

Hi,

I would use a lookup table to find the different criterias. It can then easily be expanded if more terms are added. I cannot figure out how you calculate LumpSum but I'm sure you can adjust that.

Thanks for the reply.
I seem to be getting the #NAME error on all cells when I've copied your suggested formulas. Are there any named ranges to be aware of? I haven't been able to diagnose why the error is occurring.

Do you have the Analysis Toolpak add-in installed? Go to Tools, Addins and make sure that Analysis Toolpak is ticked.

Yes, the EOMONTH formula comes from analysis tool pack.

I have no named ranges in this layout.

The Analysis Tool Pack add-in has been installed, but the #NAME error persists. Any further thoughts?
