» Calculating Hourly Productivity
CATEGORY - Excel Date & Time Formulas
VERSION - All Microsoft Excel Versions
Column B contains time values representing the hours worked by each salesperson in column A.
Column C shows the number of items each salesperson sold during that time.
We want to calculate the hourly productivity (Items Sold/Hours Worked) for each salesperson.
Solution:
As time values in Excel are stored as fractions of 24 (an entire day), we must first multiply the times in column B by 24 in order to convert them to decimal values.
Hence, we calculate productivity as shown in the following formula:
=C2/(B2*24)

Colum A: Started work at 8:00:00AM
Colum B: Finished work at 5:00:00PM
Colum C: What formula is being written for to get total of hours worked


For example
Column A contains No. of Records
- 500
Column B contains Tot. Time Taken
- 15:30
using formula
=A1/(B1*24) the result in Column C1 is 32.26
manual calculation
=500/15.30 the result in Column C1 is 32.68
Why the net result of formula calculation and manual calculation are mismatching?
