Hi
I want to provide text result based on students score but also I want to modify the score and add bonus based on the score and put the new result in "new score" column. The conditions are the following

[FONT=&quot]If the score is >20 = very good ( they get a 5% performance bonus)[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]If the score is 16-20 = good ( they get a 3% performance bonus)[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]If the score is 15 and below = needs improvement ( no bonus)

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]name[/TD]
[TD]score[/TD]
[TD]result[/TD]
[TD]new score[/TD]

I am thinking of If() and maybe AND() and OR() and another formula for the "New score" column. Any help would be very much appreciated.[/FONT]
 

Excel Facts

Square and cube roots
The =SQRT(25) is a square root. For a cube root, use =125^(1/3). For a fourth root, use =625^(1/4).

Hi,

In cell C2 you could have : =LOOKUP(B2,{0,16,20},{"needs improvement","good","very good"})

and in cell D2 this formula : =IF(C2="very good",B2*1.05,IF(C2="good",B2*1.03,B2))

Hope this will help

Another suggestion:

In C2 and copied down: =IF(B2>=20,"Very Good",IF(AND(B2>=16,B2<20),"Good",IF(B2<16,"Needs Improvement","")))

In D2 and copied down: =IF(C2="very good",B2*1.05,IF(C2="good",B2*1.03,B2))

I had come up with Logit's suggestion. Only difference I would consider is creating another table to reference the text and bonus value, giving you control over the performance thresholds and bonus amounts rather than hard coding to the formulas.
