What I need is a formula to compare the frequency (hourly/weekly) in D8 and D9 and perform one of the following:
  • If D8 is Hourly and D9 is weekly then multiply C15 by E8
  • If D8 is weekly and D8 is hourly then divide C15 by E8
  • If D8 and D9 are the same (both are either hourly or weekly) then return the value in C15 as is
Essentially I need the salary in C15 to reflect the appropriate frequency in order to calculate what the new salary at the correct frequency, either hourly or weekly.

Here's a couple formulas I have tried, but don't seem to work fully:
=IF(AND(G8="hourly", G9="weekly"), F15*H8, IF(AND(G8="weekly", G9="hourly"), F15/H8, F15))
=IFS(D8=D9, C15, AND(D8="Hourly", D9="Weekly"), C15*E8, AND(D8="Weekly", D9="Hourly"), C15/E8)
 
This one seems to work, THANK YOU!!!
