I need a formula that evaluates a cell and if that cell is 15000 or below the
spreadsheet multiples another cell by a certain percent, putting the result
in the current cell, if the first cell is between 15001 and 25000 it
multiplies by another percent. This goes on for four total iterations. Can
anyone help me?
 
A1 is the cell we are testing. B1 is the cell we are multiplying.
You don't need an IF statement for the last percentage assuming you want any
other number other than the ones you've defined previously to trigger the
next percentage.

=if(a1<15000,B1*15%,if(and(a1>=15001,A1<=25000),b1*20%,if(and(a1>=25001,a1<=35000),b1*25%,b1*30%)))
 
You don't give many details but try something like:

=G6*LOOKUP(F6,{0,15000,25000,35000,45000},{0.05,0.1,0.15,0.2,0.25})

You can make the formula slightly shorter by doing this:

=G6*LOOKUP(F6,{0,15,25,35,45}*1000,{0.05,0.1,0.15,0.2,0.25})

Thank you Teethless mama, I didn't know that LOOKUP() would accept an array
like that.

But you've made it less efficient by adding an unnecessary step in the
calculation process. Shorter isn't always better.
