How to cause the value in the denominator change with changing row

[nander]

I'd like the value of the denominator to change as I key in each da
sales automatically. =SUM(C31/6*23) in this example 6 is the day of th
month and 23 is the number of business days for the month. Is there
way to define 23 as a formula to count the number of business days an
return the value 23? Is there a way for the value in the position 6 i
in to change as I key in daily sales? I've attached the spreadsheet fo
help. thank you

[Toppers]

Look at the NETWORKDAYS function (which requires the Analysis Toolpack
Add-In....Tools==>Add-ins==>Analysis Toolpak)

This will calculate the working days between two dates so will give working
days in a month and the working days from start of month to current sales
date.

One way ..

In B33:

=C31/SUMPRODUCT(($A$4:$A$30<>"")*(B4:B30<>0))*COUNT($A$4:$A$30)

[ replaces: =SUM(C31/6*23) ]

Similarly,

In D33:

=E31/SUMPRODUCT(($A$4:$A$30<>"")*(D430<>0))*COUNT($A$4:$A$30)

[ replaces: =SUM(E31/6*23) ]

P/s: Noted you are using a number of superfluous SUM(...)
as well in eg: C4, C5, ... Just use: =B4, instead of =SUM(B4),
use: =C4+B5, instead of =SUM(C4+B5), ...

 

[nander]

In cell E38 the value should be 4739.87 but the formula

=E31/SUMPRODUCT(($A$4:$A$30<>"")*(D430<>0))*COUNT($A$4:$A$30)

returns the value 109,017.13. The value of the denominator increment
by 1 each day GM$ are keyed in column D.

Delete the existing zeros from all input cells within cols B and D
(where inputs would be progressively made)

Then we could use the following revised formulas:

In B33:
=C31/(COUNTIF(B4:B30,"<>")-COUNTIF(A4:A30,""))*COUNT($A$4:$A$30)

In D33:
=E31/(COUNTIF(D430,"<>")-COUNTIF(A4:A30,""))*COUNT($A$4:$A$30)

and in E38:
=E31/(COUNTIF(D430,"<>")-COUNTIF(A4:A30,""))

Thank you so very much MAX!!!
