I need help translating this simple cvs formula to airtable


I need to obtain a simple margin profit.
the formula i use in excel is this one: =(retail price / wholesale price) - 1
Everytime I try it doesn’t give me the right answer.

Your Airtable screenshot didn’t come through properly.

My guess is that your formula would look something like this:

( {Retail Price Field} / {Wholesale Price Field} ) - 1

Keep the {brackets}, but replace “Retail Price Field” and “Wholesale Price Field” with the actual names of your fields in Airtable.
