Hi, 

I have four products that each have a different value. I need to calculate how many of each product will meet both a quantity and budget goal. 

 

For example, my four product prices are:

Candle  $10

Box   $20

Table $15

Light $12 

And my goal budget is $38,000

Can i set up a table with a formula that will calculate how many of each will be needed to stay within or meet my goal of $38,000

Hi,

Anything is possible with Excel. But we have too little information to give an answer. 

Can you order just one of these items? Can you order a combination of these items? According to what criteria? Twice as many candles as tables? As many candles as lamps?

Could you attach a file with a visualisation of the expected result?

BR,

Lionel

What additional information do you need? 

If I have 38,000 and have four products to order, I am wondering if Excel can automatically tell me how many of each product if I have a column with cost?
