- A user of Web Applications [asked](https://webapps.stackexchange.com/questions/135256/google-sheet-if-function-not-working) how to:
- > - +1 when the value is >=5,
- > - +2 when the value is >=10,
- > - +3 when the value is >=15,
- > - +4 when the value is >=20,
- > - +5 when the value is >=25
- and had tried:
- =IF(F7>=5,H7+1,IF(F7>=10,H7+2,IF(F7>=15,H7+3,IF(F7>=20,H7+4,H7))))
- in Google Sheets without success. The formula does however indicate that the 'value' resides in `F7` and supplementation is of the `H7` value.

- in Google Sheets without success. The formula does however indicate that the 'value' resides in `F7` and supplementation is of the `H7` value.
- As explained by [an answer](https://webapps.stackexchange.com/a/135262) that retains the original concept of nested IFs:
- <pre> =IF(
- F7>=25,H7+5,
- IF(
- F7>=20,H7+4,
- IF(
- F7>=15,H7+3,
- IF(
- F7>=10,H7+2,
- IF(F7>=5,H7+1,H7)
- )
- )
- )
- )</pre>
- >If the first condition is F7>=5 then the result will always be +1 wether F7 = 5, 15, or even 200.
- It's because the first condition F7>=5 is always met.
- Stepping down the ranges does achieve the desired result but is there a shorter of more versatile solution, since nested IFs with ranges are often problematic?

How to add to the value of one cell an amount that depends upon the range of a different cell?
