Hello
Will someone give me some help in setting up a model to forecast accounts
receivables. I should be something like this:
I regret the rather long-winded question but ....

Input:
                                               B1          C1           D1        
F1        G1        H1
Payment proportions          0.10       0.40        0.30       0.10      0.00   
0.00

meaning that 10% of cash flows are received in the month of sale, 40% in the
first month after sale, 30% in the second month and 10% in the third month. The
model should allow to work with payment proportions extending over up to month
five after sales.

I have Start month as input in cell B2 (dd-mm-yyyy). I have entered here:

01-01-1999
          

Row             Credit         C10  D10   E10

In C10 I have the formula: =B2

In D10 I have the formula: =EDATE($B$2, COLUMNS($A$1:A1) which I drag to M10.
In A15 I have the formula: =EDATE($B$2, -(COUNTA($B$1:$H$1)-1)).
In A16 I have the formula: =EDATE($A$15, Rows($A$1:A1) which I drag to
A29.                                              

What I am after is some help with the formulas to calculate the monthly cash
flows (as indicated in rows 18-20).

If I enter for example 0.10; 0.40; 0.20; 015; 0.10; 0.05 in cells B1:H1
then I should have 200; 800; 400; 300; 200; 100 in cells C18: H18 etc.

Somewhere I feel it should be rather elementary, but nevertheless I can't figure

out the right formulas.
