I am trying to emulate MS Excel’s “^” function in Airtable. I have tried the POWER function and it doesn’t seem to work. Optimally, I am calculating Customer Lifetime Value. Any clues about how to effectively do this?

Could you give an example of what you’re trying to achieve, and the results you’re getting with POWER that aren’t what you expect?

I have the same issue.  Here is the google sheets formula:  =(0.028*((D6)^0.8))

What would the airtable formula be?  D6 is the cell number.

 Hi @Arna_Miller,

Here are screenshots showing you how to use the function POWER().

If you check the result on a calculator, you'll see that it all checks out.

Hope it helps.
