Hi all,

Please help me with a formula to calculate electricity bill which is based on variable rate from two slabs mentioned in the sheet. I need the formula in cell G5, where the first 100 units price is always 0 and should calculate remaining units based on the slabs. Please note if the value in F5 is below 500 then it should consider slab A, for value above 500 then consider Slab B.
I have attached sheet. Thank you!

yes, but there is a slight deviation when compared to the other post. Here there are two slab rates and the calculation differs for two different scenarios. That's why.
Please suggest me the correct formula for this scenario.
