Hi,

Good Morning!
Need some help on this formula, Excel says that I have entered too many arguments using this formula. I underlined the formula on which to work on.

This formula is not working
IF(B3<=20,INDEX('EXPORT 2017'!C20:L59,C4,C6),B3*INDEX('EXPORT 2017'!C62:L68,IF(AND($B$3>=21,$B$3<=44),1,IF(AND($B$3>=45,B3<=70),2,IF(AND(B3>=71,B3<=99),3,IF(AND(B3>=100,B3<=299),4,IF(AND(B3>=300,B3<=499),5,IF(AND(B3>=500,B3<=999),6,IF(B3>=1000,6))))))),SUMIF('EXPORT 2017'!$C$61:$L$61,B6,'EXPORT 2017'!$C$60:$L$60)))

But if I will only use 6 IF AND function, excel accepts the formula.

Below table is my reference on this one.[B]Excel 2007[/B][TABLE]

Can you AutoAverage in Excel?
There is a drop-down next to the AutoSum symbol. Open the drop-down to choose AVERAGE, COUNT, MAX, or MIN

This part of the formula has addressed both the TRUE and FALSE criteria, anything after that would give an error !!

Code: 
IF(B3<=20,INDEX('EXPORT 2017'!C20:L59,C4,C6),B3*INDEX('EXPORT 2017'!C62:L68)

This part
Code: 
IF(AND($B$3>=21,$B$3<=44),1,IF(AND($B$3>=45,B3<=70),2,IF(AND(B3>=71,B3<=99),3,IF(AND(B3>=100,B3<=299),4,IF(AND(B3>=300,B3<=499),5,IF(AND(B3>=500,B3<=999),6,IF(B3>=1000,6)))))))

can be reduced to


Code: 
LOOKUP(B3,{0,44,70,99,299,499,1000},{1,2,3,4,5,6,6})

and what will trigger this to happen
Code: 
SUMIF('EXPORT 2017'!$C$61:$L$61,B6,'EXPORT 2017'!$C$60:$L$60)))

If you reduce the formula down, you will see that the SUMIF argument is the problem
So, the Red part is if B3 is TRUE
The blue part is if it is FALSE

If they have been been addressed, the green part is "too many arguments"
Code: 
=IF(B3<=20,[color=red]INDEX('EXPORT 2017'!C20:L59,C4,C6)[/color],[color=blue]B3*INDEX('EXPORT 2017'!C62:L68,LOOKUP(B3,{0,44,70,99,299,499,1000},{1,2,3,4,5,6,6})[/color][color=green],SUMIF('EXPORT 2017'!$C$61:$L$61,B6,'EXPORT 2017'!$C$60:$L$60)[/color]))

Untested...try

Code: 
=IF(B3<=20,INDEX('EXPORT 2017'!C20:L59,C4,C6),IF(B3>20,B3*INDEX('EXPORT 2017'!C62:L68,LOOKUP(B3,{0,44,70,99,299,499,1000},{1,2,3,4,5,6,6})),SUMIF('EXPORT 2017'!$C$61:$L$61,B6,'EXPORT 2017'!$C$60:$L$60)))

Hi Michael,

Good Afternoon!
The formula is accepted by excel but when I change B3, result vector only follows 1, which is 7.10, if I will put B3=45, value should be 6.70 which is under result vector 2.


Code: 
LOOKUP(B3,{0,44,70,99,299,499,1000},{[SIZE=5][I][U][B]1[/B][/U][/I][/SIZE],[SIZE=5][U][B]2[/B][/U][/SIZE],3,4,5,6,6})
