Ok, now I get it! Try this:
I'm assuming you're entering decimal numbers in A1:C1
Formula in D1:
=IF(A1,A1*260,IF(B1,B1*52,IF(C1,C1*12,0)))
Formula in E1:
=CEILING((MAX(A1:C1)/24)/52,TIME(0,15,0))
Formula in F1:
=CEILING((MAX(A1:C1)/24)/12,TIME(0,15,0))
Format E1:F1 as [h]:mm

not sure what you mean by value.
what i am attempting to do is determine how many annual hours are
spent
on
given tasks...some are performed daily, some weekly, some monthly
column a represents daily, column b - weekly, column c - monthly
so if a task is performed 3 times daily a "3" would be in column
a...if
it
is performed 1 weekly a "1" would be in column b etc
it is only counted as either daily, weekly or monthly...never all 3
i want the result returned in column d which is my annual hours spent
on
this task column
so if column a has a 3 in it then column b and c would both be blank
i want the formula in column d to look at columns a b & c find which
one
has
a value then take that value and multiply it times 260 if found in
column
a,
52 if found in column b or 12 if found in column c...am i asking for
the
impossible?
then once i have the annual number of hours, i need to translate that
into
weekly hours and monthly hours...kind of calculated backwards if that
makes
and sense
so if column d = 18.00 hours...divide that by 52 for the weekly time
spent
on the task in column e and divide it by 12 for the monthly time spent
in
column f
or if there is an easier way to get this all done i am very open to
suggestions. thanks!
:
Question 1:
Assuming the cells will only contain numbers...
Assuming the value is 10...
=10*IF(A1,260,IF(B1,52,IF(C1,12,0)))
Question 2: not following you on this one!

i have a 2 part question:
i need a formula that will look for a value in a particular cell
then
based
on which column it is found in multiply by the corresponding value
to
return
the correct product
i.e., look across columns a, b & c...if it finds a number in a
multiply by
260 if it finds a number in column b multiply by 52 if it finds a
number
in
column c multiply by 12
there will never be a number in more than one column
2nd question...how can i translate a number into hours broken down
by
quarters
18 hours*52 weeks = .346...i need .346 converted to hours or
rounded
up to
the nearest quarter hour
