Nested IF with Vlookups

[csamy987]

Hi,

I built a table (PriceTable) that keeps pricing based on volume ordered as follows:
ColumnA ColB ColC ColD
1 ProductName Sign Qty Price
2 ProductA > 10 $3
3 ProductA < 10 $4

When looking at my sales, I would like to use IF and VLOOKUP to check if the sale is more than or less than 10. I know I can just use > or < but my pricing table has close to 60 items so I am trying to use a dynamic formula to check the whole table. For example,
Sale A is for 15 of Product A. They will pay $3 per item
ColumnA ColB ColC
1 ProductName Qty Price
2 ProductA 15 Formula???????

My formula in cell C2 above is
=IF(AND(A2=VLOOKUP(A2,PriceTable,1,FALSE),B2&VLOOKUP(A2,PriceTable,2,FALSE)&VLOOKUP(A2,PriceTable,3,FALSE)),
VLOOKUP(A2,PriceTable,4,FALSE),"")
The formula result is #VALUE ! because it recognizes 15>10 as text instead of values. Can I use something other than & in this formula or is there any other way of doing it?

Thanks in advanced.

Welcome to the Board!

I think just using VLOOKUP with approximate matching will work, if you set up your look up table correctly.
Instead of using < or >, simply enter the lower bound for each range. For example, instead of "less than 10", you would use 0. And instead of "greater then or equal to 10", you would just 10.
