Excel: Create a Future Date Based On a Score
I need to calculate future dates based on a numerical score. The spreadsheet has an inspection date and a score of 1-3. If the score is 1 then I want the cell to display a date 30 days after the inspection date. If the score is 2 then I want the cell to display a date 60 days after the inspection. And if the score is 3 then I want the cell to display a date 90 days after the inspection. Can you give me an example of the IF statement?
Thanks

If I assume that inspection date is in A2
and score is in B2
, then this should work without the need for an IF
statement:
=A2+(B2*30)
which just adds the number of days to the original date, based on 30 times score.
Don't forget to format the cell the formula is in to date format.
UPDATE
If you don't always have that direct of a relationship, then you can use CHOOSE
.
=A2+CHOOSE(B2,30,60,90)
Here B2
is used to select the appropriate value in your list of values 30,60,90
such as if B2
is 2
then the second value is returned.
