Calculate salary increase scenarios

100%

The increase rates sit in C1, D1 and E1. Each employee has a current salary in column B, so every result is salary multiplied by one plus its scenario rate.

When you copy a formula down, the salary row must move but the rate cell must stay fixed. Dollar signs lock the rate address, so $C$1 still points to the 20% rate on every row.

In C2, apply the rise in B1 to each salary, and fill down to C6.
