I've been staring at this too long and can't figure it out. When C2 is greater than 0, it gives me the value of E3*F3 plus E50*F50 (always above 0 if C2 is above 0). Why doesn't this formula divide by the value in cell C2? That value should be divided by C2, shouldn't it?

=IF(C2>0,(('[UDR 2019.xlsx]04-01'!$E$3*'[UDR 2019.xlsx]04-01'!$F$3)+('[UDR 2019.xlsx]04-01'!$E$50*'[UDR 2019.xlsx]04-01'!$F$50)/C2),"")

When C2 is blank, the formula returns a blank, as it should.
 

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
You've got the /C2 in the wrong place, it should be
=IF(C2>0,(('[UDR 2019.xlsx]04-01'!$E$3*'[UDR 2019.xlsx]04-01'!$F$3)+('[UDR 2019.xlsx]04-01'!$E$50*'[UDR 2019.xlsx]04-01'!$F$50))/C2,"")
