</tbody>[/TABLE]

I want the result of 24,163.41 by applying that particular number that can subtract or add the actual rates to recalculate the profit which when added can lead to 24,163.41 . Unfortunately i tried the average formula between two rates subtract them and then apply the formula = average of actual rates minus average of completed tenor rates = -1.08625% . However when this difference is applied to all actual rates the total profit does not reconcile with the amount resulting with an answer of 24,156.28 .

Hence to achieve my answer of 24,163.41 i manually tried hit and try logic to achieve the result . Please advice why there is difference between the two answer . I am lost. I need to automate the difference of 1.0850241% through available actual rate and last completed tenor rates .

After the month are the number of days example : 13 , 30 , 31 etc

Below is the sample file for easy understanding.

Excel Facts

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
I finally found the answer below is the accurate logic

(Required Profit on completed tenor / amount / Total Number of days *365) - (
(Required Profit on Actual tenor / amount / Total Number of days *365)

The difference between two rates is the actual answer :cool:



/ = Drivide
* =Multiply
( = Brackets
- = Minus
