Any suggestions to make this calculation more compact? (Gross Pre-tax Income derived from Net Income after tax)

I have created a small spreadsheet to derive the Gross Pre-tax Income when all that is known is the Net Income, and the Tax Brackets and Rates.

In the example that follows, when the known Net Income is entered in D18, E18 displays the correct Gross Income.

The Tax Brackets and Rates are not static, but are in turn drawn from a set of 13 different Provincial rate groups using an INDIRECT function.

This was the best solution I could think of and it is accurate, but if possible, I'd like to condense this a bit more if there is a simple way to do it that I have overlooked and am very receptive to any ideas that may be obvious to others with more experience.

Thank you for your consideration

Copy a format multiple times
Select a formatted range. Double-click the Format Painter (left side of Home tab). You can paste formatting multiple times. Esc to stop
You can use the following formula in Cell E18 and eliminate Column F entirely:

Code:
=INDEX(E3:E14,MATCH(D18,E3:E14,1))+INDEX(D3:D14,MATCH(D18,E3:E14,1))+(($D$18-INDEX(E3:E14,MATCH(D18,E3:E14,1)))/(1-INDEX(B3:B14,MATCH(D18,E3:E14,1)+1)))

Hopefully this helps point you in an alternate direction.

Take care,

Owen

Even this one gives the same answer as mine :)

Thank you MorganO.

That is exactly what I was thinking before Asad pointed out he had already answered my question completely in another thread!

I will take what you added to my solution and place it by his solution and see what I can learn from the comparison of the two responses to perhaps use in the future. I have just discovered this forum - what a great resource this is, thank you!
