If formula based on score

[sanket_sk]

Hi All,

I just want to create simple formula where excel should return value based on increasing / decreasing trend..

Details ..

We have highest and lowest score board where lowest value is better ( Payment due in months =<1.5 months is better than =>2.5 Months).

Here we want to give 15% additional discount if payment is made =<1.5 months, and it will reduce 1.5% on each increase intervention ( Table Below)

Please help me in creating this formula

Months	Score
<=1.5	15%
1.6	13.50%
1.7	12%
1.8	10.50%
1.9	9%
2	7.50%
2.1	6%
2.2	4.50%
2.3	3%
2.4	1.50%
>=2.5	0%

Assuming that your months are always exactly equal to one decimal place, then for any value in cell A1, use this formula:

=MIN(MAX(0.15-(A1-1.5)*0.15,0),0.15)

Thanks for Quick reply Joe, this formula worked for me..

Also please suggest for below equation, where Higher is better.

Payment Collection	Score
<=70%	0%
71%	1%
72%	2%
73%	3%
74%	4%
75%	5%
76%	6%
77%	7%
78%	8%
79%	9%
80%	10%
81%	11%
82%	12%
83%	13%
84%	14%
>=85%	15%

That one is even easier, as it is a straight 1% increase on both sides:

=MIN(MAX(A1-0.7,0),0.15)

I hope you are starting to see the pattern here, and it makes sense (where you should be able to figure other ones out now).
If not, let me know what questions you have about the formula.
