Calculated Column Ranges Across People

Hi,

 

I am trying to create a calcualted column that creates ranges based on values. In the example People with have varying number of apples, and based on the number of apples, I want to create a column that puts them in a range. IN my example below, if a person has anywhere greater than 10,000 apples, then write >10,000, and so on and so forth for the following ranges, >10,000, 10,000-5,000, 5,000-2,000, 2,000-1,000, 1,000-500, 500>

 

Name# of ApplesRange
Jack10,001>10,000
John5,69810,000-5,000
Jill2901,000-500
Jenny3500>

Should probably do this with Groups. If you want a column, just use SWITCH:

 

Range =
  SWITCH(TRUE(),
    [# of Apples] > 10000,"> 10,000",
    [# of Apples] > 5000,"10,000-5,000",
    [# of Apples] > 2000,"5,000-2,000",
    [# of Apples] > 1000,"2,000-1,000",
    [# of Apples] > 500,"1,000-500",
    "<500"
  )
