I have a sheet (Attached), where I want to change the value of the total billable hours to reach a target utilization, but it's not working properly, appreciate any pointers.

Excel Facts

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.
Wouldn't your formula be Total hours charged(316*.70) = 221.2?
