I'm trying to create a 3 cell sheet to calculate product markup. The first cell (A1), the user would enter a quantity. The second cell(B1) the user would enter the wholesale cost. The third cell(C1) will generate the calculated retail cost or markup.

The markup being multiplied to the wholesale cost(B1) varies depending on both quantity(A1) and wholesale cost(B1)

Basically if the quantity is 6 AND the wholesale cost is 1($1.00) then retail cost = wholesale times 3(300%)

I have 9 different quantities that could be entered by the user, and about 20 different wholesale price ranges that could be entered by the user.

my initial approach was in C1 I used =IF(B1<=1;B1*3IF(B1<=2;B1*2.75.......)))) and so on, but this only accounts for the wholesale price. I can't figure out how to incorporate the quantity too.

Any help? Laymen terms please, I have a very basic understanding of calc.

Thanks in advance.

I think you need to use a double lookup table like on the attached doc (Quantity and Wholesale Cost Table.ods)...
