Hello,

I am hoping someone can help me with figuring out a formula to check if the last value in a row is greater than the first value in the same row then yes else no. There are only 4 cells in the row and they may have blanks. If the first cell is 2 and the next is 3 but the next is 2, then it is a no because the last value is the row is a 2 and that is not greater than the first value. I hope I explained this right. Thank you very much

How to calculate loan payments in Excel?
Use the PMT function: =PMT(5%/12,60,-25000) is for a $25,000 loan, 5% annual interest, 60 month loan.
I am not a formula expert, but let's see if the following helps. It made sense to me.
Simply finding the last numeric value in the given range (with LOOKUP), and first numeric value in the same range (with INDEX array formula) then comparing these 2. Empty cells are considered.

1- Assuming the data range is A1:D1 (you can change the range in the formula, either with range name or a different range)
2- This is a CSE formula that you enter into the cell (F2 on the cell), paste this formula inside, and hit Ctrl + Shift + Enter. (Index part requires it to be an array formula)

Code:
=IF(LOOKUP(2,1/(ISNUMBER(A1:D1)),A1:D1)>INDEX(A1:D1,MATCH(TRUE,ISNUMBER(A1:D1),0)),"yes","no")
