Hello, I would like to rate each item to find out why my "bread and butter" items are. e.g. ITEM1 would get something like CC and ITEM2 CA and ITEM14 AA. what formula can look at all items and score according to preset rules (e.g. top 10% = A and so on)

I'm not sure I understand the helper column. If the high helper numbers represent the lower COS (cost) then yes. what I'm looking for are the items that sell most and cost least. thanks for your response
