I am trying to develop a formula that can give me the cost price by inputting the sell price and Return of Investment (ROI)

My sell price is $20.00 I want to input a ROI of 20% and have the result be my desired cost.

Any help would be welcome.
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
How about if you take your Sell and divide by 1 + your ROI

For example if your Sell is $60.00 and you wanted to make a 20% ROI then:

60/(1 + 20%) = $50 or $60/1.2 = $50 cost or in your example:

20/1.2 = 16.67
