LOGNORM.INV function is one of Statistical functions in Microsoft Excel that returns the inverse of the lognormal cumulative distribution function of x, where ln(x) is normally distributed with parameters Mean and Standard_dev. If p = LOGNORM.DIST(x,…) then LOGNORM.INV(p,…) = x.
Use the lognormal distribution to analyze logarithmically transformed data.

LOGNORM.INV(probability, mean, standard_dev)

The LOGNORM.INV function syntax has the following arguments:

  • Probability    Required. A probability associated with the lognormal distribution.
  • Mean    Required. The mean of ln(x).
  • Standard_dev    Required. The standard deviation of ln(x).

  • If any argument is nonnumeric, LOGNORM.INV returns the #VALUE! error value.
  • If probability <= 0 or probability >= 1, LOGNORM.INV returns the #NUM! error value.
  • If standard_dev <= 0, LOGNORM.INV returns the #NUM! error value.
