In a test investment strategy, I'm looking at using a Margin Loan, and increasing the Loan each year to buy additional shares such that the Loan/Value Ratio remains the same:
I haven't been able to re-arrange a formula to solve for the value of "Additional Stock" in Row 7 - the values I added in the img were manually included by trial and error.
The "formula" is expressed as:
LVR = (Previous Loan + Additional Stock) / (Stock Value Including Growth + Additional Stock)
For example, in Year 1, it becomes:
25% = ($2,500 + X) / ($11,200 + X)
Can anyone suggest a way to solve this formula for "X"?
Try this
=($B13*C3-B11)/(1-$B13)

I'm looking for a specific Google Sheets formula. I believe it's using COUNTIFS & SUMIF, but I can't work out how to do it, any help would be really appreciated.
So, my "C" column has a number of letter combinations in each cell... These are "FHG" "CS" "MO" and afew others. They are a reference to specific market trading strategies and I'm using this sheet to track every trade I make. So C3 may contain "FHG" C4, "MO" C5, "FHG", C6 "FHG" etc.
In the "I" column, there is a 'profit and loss' column which states how much was generated/lost for that particular row... These are formatted to currency.
At the top of my sheet, I have a summary list of each set of letters and I'm using a COUNTIF statement to work out the total number (instance count) of each particular letter combo and from there, I can work out strike rates, percentages etc.
The thing I can't work out is, 'is there a way to count/sum the relative numbers in the "I" column based on a specific letter combo?' For example, let's say running down today's trades, FHG appears on C3, C6, C8, C12, C16 etc. can I collect and sum the numbers (to create a total) from the corresponding P&L column, I3, I6, I8, I12, I16 etc?
My main aim is to have the following at the top in my "Summary Section":
'Letter Combo/Name Of Trading Technique' - 'Number Of Trades' (Using COUNTIFS down C Column) - 'Total % Win Rate' (Number Of Winners/Number Of Total Trades For Said Strategy - This is done using a separate column of Y or N for winners or losers) - The one that I need help with is - "Total Sum Of Money Generated For Each Particular Letter Combo (Trading Strategy)"...... I've worked out how to do the first 3 columns, but I can't work out how to pick the numbers out from the P&L column (I) based on what kind of trade (letter combo) exists in the corresponding (C) column.
If every trade made the same about of money, this would probably be an easy calculation, but because each return is different, this is proving challenging.
Thanks for any insights :)
try:
=QUERY(A:I; "select C,sum(I) where A is not null group by C label sum(I)''")
or just for SB:
=QUERY(A:I; "select C,sum(I) where C = 'SB' group by C label sum(I)''")
if you want a count too:
=QUERY(A:I; "select C,count(C),sum(I) where A is not null group by C")
I have a spreadsheet that works properly in Excel. However, when I import it to Google Sheets it gives me the #DIV/)! error. I am at a loss for how to fix this.
I am trying to rank the items based on the number in column P. I would like for the highest number in column P to be ranked 1, then 2, 3, etc. If two numbers in column P are the same I would like for them to both be ranked the same. However, I don't want the formula to then skip the next number in the ranking order. Also, I am not sure if it matters, but column P displays a number but is technically filled with a formula to obtain that number. Example:
Points column is populated using the following formula:
=SUM(H2,J2,L2,N2,O2)
Points Rank
5 3
3 4
8 1
3 4
6 2
2 5
=SUMPRODUCT((P2 < P$2:P$36)/COUNTIF(P$2:P$36,P$2:P$36))+1
Any ideas?
Add the opposite of the numerator to the denominator to ensure you never receive #DIV/0!.
=SUMPRODUCT((P2 < P$2:P$36)/(COUNTIF(P$2:P$36,P$2:P$36)+(P2 >= P$2:P$36)))+1
When (P2 < P$2:P$36) is false, the numerator will be zero so it doesn't matter what the denominator is as long as it isn't zero.
I've seen a hundred questions with the same 'title', however I can't figure out the right answer for my problem (or maybe it gets too hard for me).
It's about a Dungeons & Dragons sheet I'm creating for me and my friends.
First a screenshot: http://prntscr.com/khmo43
What I would like is, when I input a number below 'Experience - Cell G2' (like 250), the output in cell F2 would be 1 (since a character is level 1 between 0-299 experience). However, when the experience becomes 300 or higher (between 300-900) the output should be come 2 in Cell F2.
How can I, in this case, automatically have the output in Cell F2 be determined by the value in G2. (So like, IF G2 is between A and B, F2 = C).
I'm extremely sorry if I asked a double question. I've been looking for ages.
Actually not to hard, one I had a chance to think about it. You want to use an index match with a search key as 1.
From the docs,
search_type: 1, the default, causes MATCH to assume that the range is sorted in ascending order and return the largest value less than or equal to search_key.
Because your levels are going to be sorted (I assume) you can put in the min value needed for a character to advance E.g. 0xp is the min value for level 1, 200xp is the min amount needed for level 2, 500xp is the min amount needed for level 3, etc.
=INDEX($E$2:$E$7, MATCH($A$2,$D$2:$D$7, 1))
Good luck with the campaign!
I'm trying my to use ARRAYFORMULA with SUM (or SUMIF?). I basically want to lock C1 and always SUM from C1 down
=ARRAYFORMULA((SUM(C1:C2) + 1)&":"&(SUM(C1:C3))) IN D3 is this
=ARRAYFORMULA((SUM(C1:C3) + 1)&":"&(SUM(C1:C4))) IN D4 is this
Here is sample sheet and below is visual.
Col C is 50, 20, 16, etc.
Col D is 2:50, 51:70, 71:86, etc.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DANMNEahYAoYBCQO1BsfXfUrgPj2mVWNKjn7VuYIIyI/edit#gid=0
units desired_result
50 2:50
20 51:70
16 71:86
8 87:94
2 95:96
If you could give a brief explanation on logic that'd be great. Google's is confusing (as always) and Youtube is limited.
This gives a result close to the one you want, but will need a bit of tweaking if you want to get 2:50 in F2 and 163:163 further down
=arrayformula(if(C2:C="","",sumif(row(C2:C),"<"&row(C2:C),C2:C)+1&":"&sumif(row(C2:C),"<="&row(C2:C),C2:C)))
I think it should be fairly self explanatory - the first part of the formula gives the sum for all rows where row number is less than row number of the current row and the second part of the formula gives the sum for all rows less than or equal to the current row. The slightly tricky thing is to realise that when the criteria part "<"&row(C2:C) of the SUMIF is itself an array, the SUMIF is evaluated separately for each array element and gives a new row in the resulting output array.
To lock a range, use $
=(SUM($C$1:C2) + 1)&":"&(SUM($C$1:C3))
Drag fill down.
I have a spreadsheet that I'm starting to use for personal money analysis.
My main sheet is called "transactions" and has headers of Category, Description, Date and Amount (it's basically a check register).
I've created a pivot report off of that sheet that contains sum, min and max of Amount by Category.
I would like to make a custom average function on that pivot report but not sure how to go about it.
What I would like to see is the average amount of negative transactions between positive ones.
My positive transactions are my paychecks and the negative transactions are any spending I do.
An example might help in what I'm trying to do here...
Let's say for category "Food" I have the following transactions (in this order)...
-20
-25
-30
100
-30
-35
-40
I'd like my average to be calculated like this...
( ( (-20 + -25 + -30) / 3 ) + ( (-30 + -35 + -40) / 3 ) ) / 2
Anyone have the slightest idea on how I can enhance my pivot report to do this?
You do it with something like:
=ARRAYFORMULA(AVERAGE(IF(Sheet1!D2:D8<0,Sheet1!D2:D8, 0)))
where column D is the amount of your example and Sheet1 contains the "transactions" of your example.
If you want to fill it for the pivot table (having the category as another criterion) you can check the answer at: https://stackoverflow.com/a/9165254/179529
=SUM(ARRAYFORMULA(((Transactions!$A2:$A)=$A2) * ((Transactions!$D2:$D)>0) * (Transactions!$D2:$D) ))
/
SUM(ARRAYFORMULA(((Transactions!$A2:$A)=$A2) * ((Transactions!$D2:$D)>0) * (1) ))
where $A2 is the cell where you have the category name in the pivot table (The $ will allow you to copy the formula to other columns in you want it per month or other second criterion.
If you want to SUM the element in column D only if they great than 0, you need to have ((Transactions!$D2:$D)>0) as the second argument and (Transactions!$D2:$D) as the 3rd argument (otherwise you will count the cells instead of SUM them).
Since AVERAGE will take blank cells as well, I've used SUM/COUNT instead. Note that COUNT is actually SUM with the 3rd argument as 1.
Also note that if you want to ignore a header line you need to define your columns with Transactions!$D2:$D, to start from the 2nd row.
