Nested If

[Sandy]

Hi There

I have another question:
Here is my dilemma:

If you look at the formula(s) below, you will notice that there are three
formulas.

Formulas for cost

1) Weight Rate =([totalweight]*0.055)
2) Cubic Feet Rate =([LTLsize]*0.35)
3) Less Than Load (LTL) Rate =charges([ltlsize])

Function for Storage Charge

=IIf(([totalweight]*0.055)>([ltlsize]*0.35),([totalweight]*0.055),
([ltlsize]*0.35))

What I need this formula to do is to choose the highest value of the three
formulas for cost. For example, if the 'weight rate' is $2.75 (5 lbs * .55),
and the Cubic Feet Rate is $3.50 (10 * .35), and the Less Than Load Rate is
$55 (default because the weight inputed is less than 50 pounds), then the
'Storage Charge' should display $55 multiplied Please noticed that right now,
the above Storage Charge formula is only making a comparison between two
values instead of three.

What I need is that if the Weight Rate is greater than the Cubic Feet Rate
and the Less Than Load (LTL) Rate, then the storage charge should be equal to
Weight rate. (I need ALL posibble combinations to cover all three formulas).

Thank you again to you all for helping me out!

Dear Douglas

In this one, I get another error:
"The Expression you entered has a function containing the wrong number of
paramenters". Does it has anything to do with the comma and the another IIF?

Can you assist me, please?

=IIf(([totalweight]*0.055)>([ltlsize]*0.35),IIf([totalweight]*0.055) >
charges([ltlsize]), [totalweight]*0.055, charges([ltlsize])),
([ltlsize]*0.35))

Sorry, my fault. Incorrect count of parentheses. You need one more opening
parenthesis after the second IIf.

=IIf(([totalweight]*0.055)>([ltlsize]*0.35),IIf(([totalweight]*0.055) >
charges([ltlsize]), [totalweight]*0.055, charges([ltlsize])),
([ltlsize]*0.35))
