Create calculations for existing values

overhead_press
8 - Asteroid

I have attached a snippet of my data and I need to create a series of calculations based on fields that come before it. Sheet1 contains what I was given and Sheet2 is my desired result with the formulas. 

 

I essentially need to calculate values for [Cum PD - 13] and onwards. 

 

How do I create formulas like the ones in Sheet2 without having to enter it manually? The [df#] columns could go up to [df300]. In the first row it only goes up to [df24] which is why the calculation only goes up to [CumPD - 24]. 

 

The formula is: [CumPD - X] = [CumPD - X-1] / [dfX], so for [CumPD - 13] it would be [CumPD - 12] / [df13] and for field [CumPD - 14] it would be [CumPD - 13] / [df14] and so on. 

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi @overhead_press 

 

Here is a very rough way of doing it, seems to work though so you could adapt for your needs!

 

Transpose the data vertically so you can use the multi-row formula, then cross tab it back to the original layout.
