First, I wasn't sure of the best way to title this post. Hopefully my description below will be more helpful.

I need to come up with a way to use excel to calculate a formula based on the following.

If an item cost $360,000.00 the following table below needs to be factored in to figure the commission (for lack of a better word).

(Rate per 1,000)
0-249,999.99 2.73
250,000-499,999.99 2.59
500,000-999,999.99 2.38
1,000,000-1,999,999.99 1.58

In my example, the 360,000 price would result in a 967.40 commission. That was calculated by adding (249,999.00/1,000) x 2.73 PLUS ((360,000-250,000)/10000) x 2.59.

Basically, I am looking for a way to put the pricevalue in Cell A1 and have the commission calculated on the table listed above. Is there a way to do that with excel?

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.

Nice one oldbrewer...

Here's an alternate method where you format as a table for the calculations.

Quick note on post 3:

Range C1:F5 was formatted as a table and I added Total Row under the Table Tools Design Contextural tab.

I am using Excel 2016. When I copy the formula into Cell F2, I get an error message about syntax. Is there something I am doing wrong in the set up?

Try this formula for F2:

=(MIN(Sheet1!$D2,A$1)-MIN(Sheet1!$C2,A$1))/1000*Sheet1!$E2

Then you should be able to drag the selection down to F5. (Note: you might need to change the sheet reference portion of code)
