Bonjour,

I have a spreadsheet at the moment for pricing up jobs for different contracts. Each contract has its own mark up.

I was wondering if there was a formula I could put into 1 cell (and then used for the rest of the column) so it could simplify the process.

For example, if A1 contains (TEXT 1), apply formula/calculation (D1*0.9)+(D1*0.9*1.2*0.045) to the Cell.

A1 = Contract
D1 = Retail Price

I would like to put this new formula into B1.

Not sure if it would make this easier, but I would like B1 to contain multiple arguements and find a range of contracts I have in the drop downs in Column A. Not sure if it would be a VLOOKUP table of results or?

TL:DR - I would like B1 to work out the Mark Up of D1, based on A1s contract. For this particular contract A1 (TEXT 1) uses the formula stated above.

Thanks in advance

Last used cell?
Press Ctrl+End to move to what Excel thinks is the last used cell.
Closest I have so far is:

=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("BSM FORD",A14)),(D14*0.9)+(D14*0.9*1.2*0.045),"")

However I would like to apply multiple arguements and outcomes? For example replacing "BSM FORD" with "VAUXHALL" and apply =D14-(D14/10)

You dont need brackets round the multiplication

The formula can be simplified to D1*0.9972
