I apologize in advance for not being able to frame and explain this properly without having to include a sample file.
Also, I'm sorry if this question is better suited for another group. But I see similar questions and answers here so hope someone who is good at math can assist me.

The worksheet is here, and the problem is described on the sheet.

In the simplest of terms, I am trying to find a formula which will allow usto adjust our profit margin either up or down. Lets say I want to increaseour margin by 3%.
Please the worksheet on my website. It's so much better than trying to explain it.

Thank you, Paul


Cell B4 is calculated based on the % value entered into cell C2. I am looking for a formula to enter into Cell C1 which will return the percentage value that I would need to enter into cell C2 in order to achieve an increase or decrease of cell B4 by the amount shown in cell A1.
