Averageifs Divide By Zero Error
having problems with this) - if someone's seen the answer somewhere, please let me know. I'm doing a very very basic travel expenses sheet Month by month, I need to go through a column and find a type of expense occurred that month - and then tally it up with all the expenses of the same type. For a monthly total. Then i've got a column that needs to find out what was the average spend averageifs example for that type of expense that month. So i can track month-on-month improvement example - http://f.cl.ly/items/1i3Z0Q0m1V2F2h2B3c2b/Screen%20Shot%202014-12-09%20at%2018.28.47.png The SUM bit is easy SUMIF(D2:D300, 'Food', A2:A300) so, go through 'D' column, find 'Food', and if you find it: give me the value for the same row on 'A' Column, and add them all together.. The Averaging is a bit tricky i tried (H4*12)/365 Which basically multiplies the monthly value by 12 and divides it to find out the daily average for the year (or the yearly average?). But that averages a single input from one month over a year (taking into account months in the future which are zero) therefore it brings the average off :( What i want to find out is 'What was the daily average ammount I spent getting Food, in January?' the tricky bit, obviously, is because in the Expense type column there are values i have to discard, so i don't average the food with the accomodation so i tried AVERAGEIF(D2:D19, 'Food', A2:A19) which basically says go through 'D' column, find 'Food', and if you find it: give me the value for the same row on 'A' Column, and average all those values.. which works great for the items i've spent money on, but - if i havent spent anything that month (let's say on Tips) it gives me back an error rather

In AverageIfs Function Looked all over the web and in this forum using the same search criteria as my thread title an couldn't find anything, so this may be a new one for the team. Here's my formula: =AVERAGEIFS('Data Sheet'!Q$2:Q$46,'Data Sheet'!A$2:A$46,"CHI",'Data Sheet'!C$2:C$46,"Other",'Data Sheet'!D$2:D$46,1) Problem is, if I don't have a match using this criteria, it returns a value of #DIV/0! How do I get Excel to either ignore the cells when I don't have a match, or return a value of zero to the cell I'm averaging from? Thanks.

The How-To Geek Forums Have Migrated to Discourse How-To Geek Forums / Microsoft Office Excel 2003: AVERAGEIF function returning #DIV/0 err (11 posts) Started 4 years ago by jenniferchang Latest reply from moreeg Topic Viewed 2028 times http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/excel-2003-averageif-function-returning-div0-err jenniferchang Posts: 56 This post has been reported. Hello! I have the following formula: =AVERAGE(IF(('Apr http://www.excelforum.com/showthread.php?t=825376 Open Orders'!$G$4:$G$74="April")*('Apr Open Orders'!$H$4:$H$74=1),'Apr Open Orders'!$F$4:$F$74,TRUE)) which is returning the div/0 error. I know it is a small mistake somewhere, because I've used the same formula for every other month and have had no issue. I have checked to make sure that spelling and values have been entered correctly in the data form. Thoughts? Reports: · Posted 4 years ago Top moreeg div 0 Posts: 842 This post has been reported. Hi Jennifer You would get that error if none of your conditions are being met i.e. if none of the combination of G4 - G74 * H4 -H74 =1 If you want to test for this situation in your formula you can do it this way =IF(('Apr Open Orders'!$G$4:$G$74="April")*('Apr Open Orders'!$H$4:$H$74=1)=0,"NONE",AVERAGE(IF(('Apr Open Orders'!$G$4:$G$74="April")*('Apr Open Orders'!$H$4:$H$74=1),'Apr Open Orders'!$F$4:$F$74,TRUE))) It will enter "NONE" as the solution if your conditions aren't met See if that if div 0 helps Moree Reports: · Posted 4 years ago Top jenniferchang Posts: 56 This post has been reported. Hi Moree, It did return NONE. Maybe I just need a second set of eyes. That is the report the formula is referencing - I'm sure there is something very simple I am missing, but I just am not seeing it! Appreciate your help! Reports: · Posted 4 years ago Top moreeg Posts: 842 This post has been reported. If it is simple I'm not seeing it either. We need to check each of the conditions .... Are the cells where April and 100% appear outside the range of rows 4 to 74 Is "April" text or a date (click on a cell with April and see what it has in the formula bar - if it says 1/4/2012 it is a date and you'll need to change it Try those and if neither of those are true I'll keep looking Edit: also check to see if the sheet you pasted is actually 'April Open Orders' Reports: · Posted 4 years ago Top jenniferchang Posts: 56 This post has been reported. Hello! Checked all of those conditions. Also cut and paste the tab name into the formula to make sure that was being referenced correctly. Still returning the same error.
