Tax rate calculation with fixed base in Excel

by

This tutorial shows how to work Tax rate calculation with fixed base in Excel using the example below;

Formula

=IF(A1<limit,A1*rate,(A1-limit)*rate+fixed)

Explanation

This example shows how to set up simple formula using the IF function to calculate a tax amount with both fixed and variable components. In the example shown, the formula in C5 is:

=IF(B5<limit,B5*rate,(B5-limit)*rate+fixed)

in a worksheet with the following named ranges: rate = F4, fixed = F5, limit = F6.

Worked Example:   How to display conditional message with REPT function in Excel

The rules of this problem are as follows:

  1. If amount is less than $1000, tax is amount * 20%.
  2. If amount is greater than or equal to $1000, tax is $200 + (amount over 1000) *20%
Worked Example:   nth largest value with criteria in Excel

How this formula works

The core of this formula is a single IF statement that checks the amount in column B against the base limit:

=IF(B5<limit

If TRUE, the formula simply multiplies the amount in B5 by tax rate:

B5*rate

If FALSE, the formula applies the tax rate to the amount over 1000, then adds the fixed amount:

(B5-limit)*rate+fixed)
