I am looking for a formula for the following:

List of names and salaries for the top 10% of a compinies top earners
List of names and salaries for the bottom 10% of a compinies top earners
 

Excel Facts

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
Hi,

AutoFilter offers the possibility of extract what you are looking for ...

Hope this will help

With the very ' skinny ' description you gave of your data structure ... quite tough to come up with a proposal ...

Probably a helper column based on your Salary column would produce your expected result ...of companies top earners ...

I would have two Pivot Tables, one for each question.
Filter by the desired Top 10 (Bottom 10) which is more flexible than its name suggest.

Thank you so much i have used the large function and it is doing what she needs

For sure you have noticed Large() function deals with the ranking of amounts and not with the percentages ...

You could test

=A2>=Percentile(yourRange,0.9)

Hope this will help
