Hello all,

I am trying to create a staffing budget that will pro-rate their gross salary into each pay period, taking into account any contract changes i.e. a member of staff may reduce hours in year, and I would like to create a template that would allow for the new contract to be entered, and it would then estimate costs based on the dates entered.

Below is the information I am currently working off of, but the closest I can get is for the formula to do whole month calculations, rather than based on relevant days in the period for each month. I am unable to produce accurate results if the end dates are not the end of the month (which would be unlikely in reality)

Welcome to the forum.

How did you calculate 1612.90?
How did you determine No of Months and what is it used for? If the dates are mid-month, how many months would they be?

Hello,
This was calculated by using this "=IF(AND(S$1>=$D5,S$1<=$E5),($H5/(31*12))*($F5/$G5))"

Thanks,

Only just saw the reference to the number of months, this is a field currently used to split payment over the relevant period, but ultimately the formula would purely look at the start and end dates on each row, and pro rate into each month
