Alright, good morning everyone...looking for a little help remembering my HS calculus lessons here (I think). Here's the situation. I've got an Excel-based commission tool. As it is configured it works to calculate commissions based on two separate slope/intercept graphs for two different products that sum to a total average calculated selling price & total compensation. My sales team really doesn't care about the price per product they want to offer "Here is your total price per widget (regardless if it's A or B) they just want to say 40,100 at a rate of $18.13 each (or whatever). My issue is each widget has a different slope. I can do each calculation separately (Rows 2&3) & then rows 6&7 then add them together but this requires the sales team to enter a sale price in F2 & F6 & then they get an average price per widget in F10 automatically. What they want is to enter 1 price in F10 & have the math work upwards. The problem I'm having is with different volumes & slopes. I can't figure out how to make this work since the slopes/volumes are different. Any help is super appreciated. Currently F10 is a weighted average but G10 is a sum of G above.

Message me with any questions!

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
