Google-sheets – Google Spreadsheet Percentage of Price in Column

google sheetsgoogle-spreadsheets

After searching through several sites this seemed to be the best area for Google Spreadsheet questions and after browsing through the tag and searching for price I didn't see this asked before. Closest question found was How to write this Google Spreadsheet percentage calculation function?. So here goes, I have a four column spreadsheet that I would like to narrow down to three columns. The current spreadsheet looks like this:

enter image description here

My end goal is to input Price and Percent Off and then calculate the End Price without having a hidden column, in this case Percent Price. Currently my process is:

  • Price is input in column D
  • Percent off is input in Column C
  • Column B calculates the percentage with =round(D2*C2,2)
  • Column A takes the percent price and subtracts from Price =(D2-B2)

So my question is, how can I get End Price with two columns (Percent Off & Price)?

Best Answer

You can use the following in your End Price column:

=FullPrice-ROUND(FullPrice*PercentDiscount,2)

FullPrice = Column with the full price.

PercentOff = Column with the percentage discount you want to apply.
