Hello,
I have a table with transactions, each transaction has a "gap". The gap indicates either a surplus (positive gap) or a deficit (negative gap). I am trying to calculate the accumulated deficit.
Here is how I was able to achieve it in Excel:
the formula for accumulated surplus =IF(C3+E2>0, 0, C3+E2)
the formula for accumulated deficit `=IF(C3<=0,D2,IF(AND(C3>0,C3+E2<0),D2,(C3+E2+D2)))
| n | Gap | Accumulated Deficit | Accumulated Surplus |
| 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 2 | 20 | 20 | 0 |
| 3 | -12 | 20 | -12 |
| 4 | 5 | 20 | -7 |
| 5 | 11 | 24 | 0 |
| 6 | 0 | 24 | 0 |
| 7 | -3 | 24 | -3 |
| 8 | 1 | 24 | -2 |
| 9 | -7 | 24 | -9 |
| 10 | -2 | 24 | -11 |
| 11 | -1 | 24 | -12 |
| 12 | 3 | 24 | -9 |
| 13 | 0 | 24 | -9 |
Any help would be appreciated!
Hello!
Did you figure out a way to do this? 🙂
@hmayol ,
Could you provide some sample data and the expected result, so that I can help you.
The information that you have provided is not clear. What is C3, E2 and D2. I think this are the cell references in the excel file.
Please provide sample data to understand your requirement.
Regards,
