This maybe a maths Algebra question rather than excel - but i'm adding to excel

If i get changed a FEE of 13.22% plus a fixed price of 30p , i can work out the fee based on the sales price

Fee =((Sales price)*0.1322)+0.3 = FEES
so
Net Price = sales price - fee , is what i'm left with

now how do you calculated the sales price needed in order to achieve a net price required , since the fees increase when the sales price changes

so if i want to make £25 , what price must i sell the item at

you cant just add - sales price + fees together , as now the new fees are larger

Net Price = sales price - (((Sales price)*0.1322)+0.3)

must be algebra , but i cant see it , maybe to early in the morning

i want a Netprice of £25 , what do i need to sale at

How can you automate Excel?
Press Alt+F11 from Windows Excel to open the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) editor.
I think I've got it, but maybe not...

Excel Formula:
=SUM(SUM(SUM($H$5-$H$4)/$H$3)*100)

The above gives me a value in column D6 that results in me making $25.

Because there is the dynamic relationship between Selling Price and Fee so, as a one-off, you will need to go to > Excel Preferences > Calculation and Tick the option for Iterative Calculation.
Then try like the below.

@kvsrinivasamurthy


Saleprice=(Netprice+0.30)/(1-0.1322)
not a problem i just take off the 60p
Saleprice=((Netprice+0.30)/(1-0.1322))-0.6
i roundup to nearest £5 any way
=ceiling(salesprice/5,1)*5

Thats seems to work without the need for turning off iteration - BUT still 60P out also
