Hi all,

I've been using this forum for support and self learning for a long time, but this is my first time posting.
I got math problem to solve in excel and I would really appreciate if some of you could assist me in how to set this up correctly in excel....

The equations is as follows;

PA = P * (Y * L / L0 + Z * M / M0 ) – P

where:

PA =​
Price adjustment
P =​
Price (let's use 100 as an example)
Y =​
Work component of price (expressed in %)
L =​
Labour index A (let's use 50 as an example)
Lo =​
Labour index B (let's use 100 as an example)
Z =​
Material component of price (expressed in %)
M =​
Material index A (let's use 50 as an example)
Mo =​
Material index B (let's use 100 as an example)

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.

IF yours data is in Column A to G respectivly (from P to M0)
I suppose your first row is row 2 . then formula is:
Excel Formula:
=A2*(B2*(C2/D2)+E2*(F2/G2))-A2
