Investment Model Allocation based upon Percentage and Dollar Amounts

Hi,

I am working on a project in which I need to create an investment allocation spreadsheet. The idea is that there can be anywhere from 2 to 6 investment accounts, each with varying dollar amounts. Each account is then then defined as either a "taxable" or "tax deferred" account. From there, I want to apply those accounts to an investment model with targeted asset class percentages (e.g. 8% to Large Cap, 12% to Emerging Markets, etc. totalling to 100%). Each asset class will either be allocated to a "taxable" or a "tax deferred" account(s), and one asset class will be allocated to both registrations (due to percentage differences). Next, based upon the asset class percentage and the total portfolio amount, the trade amount to be placed for the asset class is then formulated.

This next part is where I am stuck. I want to create a formula (or macro) that will dictate which particular account(s) the asset class should be traded to, where everything ends up allocated to the investment model.

So, as an example, there could be a scenario where I have 3 accounts (1 "taxable" and 2 "tax deferred" accounts) that will all be considered "one bucket of money" and I want to allocate those accounts to the investment model which is based upon different asset classes. Each asset class has a defined $ trade amount and is also assigned to an account registration ("taxable"/"tax deferred" or "both").

I'm not sure if I explained this well or not. Apologies if I didn't. Thank you in advance, I sincerely appreciate it.
 
It should work for as many accts as you want. Trial some more. Make sure your numbers on sheet2 are correct and A7:A22 add up to 100%. If it still doesn't work maybe abit more info will be needed to figure out what's wrong (ie. what didn't calculate correctly?) Changing the format won't be difficult. How do the tickers get to D&:D22? Dave

Excel Facts

Spell Check in Excel
Press F7 to start spell check in Excel. Be careful, by default, Excel does not check Capitalized Werds (whoops)
Trial this:

Input these amounts:
C25: $355,122.22
C26: $425,111.67
C27: $85,000.55
C28: $115,322.44

Then run the MACRO. It has calculates up to the 2 remaining cells and then "Not Responding" at the same place for 7 times in a row. Is this happening to you. It has also happened on some other scenarios as well.

Also, when running certain other trials with varying amounts in the Account Balances (C25:C30) it will complete the calculation, but for some trade amounts in the "MultiTrade" scenario the amount in parenthesis will say "(-35)", and instead of displaying "MultiTrade" it will say "$0.01".
Any thoughts??

Also trialed some more and some would calculate everything but the "Allocate to Both*", which would be left blank in column F and on to the right.

Do your gross amounts for each account (ie. taxable/tax deferred) add up to the same gross totals of the input? I used those numbers and it runs as it should. I should mention that B25 down requires exact input (ie. Taxable or Tax Deferred) as does C7:C22. C12 returns FALSE for me without altering Sheet2N25 to equal Sheet1C3. I trialled adding the additional number both as Taxable and Tax Deferred... the code works. It executes until the current total balance in G goes to 0. The percentages in A have to total the gross for each acct (ie, Taxable). On the 1 cent thing...there should be some kind of code addition that sets a minimimum trade for each assett acct (ie. don't trade if there's less funds in the assett account than the trade fee.) Anyways, column A % and the output from the formulas in C (based on sheet2) drive the whole thing. I assume that your inputted numbers somehow affect these? Dave
ps. If there's nothing left over from both accts to allocate to both then nothing happens (it's done last)

I'm still following your logic with everything. And yes, my numbers all seem to still work. I'm just trialing many different scenarios to test, and most of the time it works efficiently. But like I said, every now and then it doesn't. I'm not "freezing" up any more but I will still do that thing that you described in your "p.s." in your previous post where it will leave allocate to both blank (even though all the remaining balances equal exactly the amount left to be traded in "allocate to both*". I like the idea of the minimium trade code being added so that there are no trades placed for less than the trade cost.
So, now where do we stand? Seems like we're pretty close, but I'm still confused. Sorry and thanks!

It's likely that the minimum trade thing is throwing things off. When the allocate to both problem happens is there a remaining current balance in G for both Taxable and Tax Deferred? Does this sum exactly to the amount remaining in E (set up a ws formula check)... there may be some fractionation error that needs to be addressed. I don't understand how you want the acct# formatted and how/where the ticker symbol is for allocate to both (could it be comma delineated in D?). Dave

Trial changing these 2 lines of code to address the minimum the minimum trade thing. Dave
Code:
Do While Temptot > Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A" & 1).Value '1
Do While RemTot > Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A" & 1).Value '1

...and just noticed your post above the code.
To answer your question...YES, when the "Allocate to Both*" is left blank, the total remaining for the accounts in G matches exactly to the remaining amount in E.
Account numbers are formatted like this: ###-###### (e.g. 123-456789)
If it is a multiaccount I would rather the ticker not show up in cell D. This is because it may make it more difficult for a user to know which ticker goes to which account.
I don't mind it being added to the mix in F and onto the right by comma delineattion next to the respective trade amount and account like it is currently being via your code.
