Using last years actuals for January and February and using this years January results +February forecast.

If the customer's year-over-year variance is positive they are label as a gainer, if their year-over-year variance is negative then they are labeled a decliner.

This is the formula I was trying to use and kept getting an error
=(if(sum(B2:C2>sum(D2,E2),"Decliner"))),(if((sum(B2:C2<sum(D2,E2),"Gainer"))),(if((sum(B2:C2=sum(D2,E2),"Gainer")))))

Hi and welcome to MrExcel
This is the formula I was trying to use and kept getting an error
=(if(sum(B2:C2>sum(D2,E2),"Decliner"))),(if((sum(B2:C2<sum(D2,E2),"Gainer"))),(if((sum(B2:C2=sum(D2,E2),"Gainer")))))
Considering the example of your formula.

Try:

Excel Formula:
=IF(SUM(B2:C2)<=SUM(D2:E2),"Gainer","Decliner")

Example:

Dante Amor
ABCDEF
1
210090120110Gainer
Hoja1
Cell Formulas
RangeFormula
F2F2=IF(SUM(B2:C2)<=SUM(D2:E2),"Gainer","Decliner")



Or simply:

Dante Amor
ABCDEF
1
210090120110Gainer
Hoja1
Cell Formulas
RangeFormula
F2F2=IF(B2+C2<=D2+E2,"Gainer","Decliner")
