1600 1600 1800 1600 1600

The Table is wrong, it's just a format for visual help.


Conditon 1- Where all the values from A2:A6 and C2:C6 should be same
Condition 2- All the total's of A,B,C,D should be same in all Conditions
Condition 3- Where the values in E2:E6 should be in such a manner that E2- C2 should be a positive number not a negative number, and the total of C Should be also the same as of total B.
Condition 4-Again the same situation is repeated again in terms od C to D and then again to D to A, I want to automate the whole process where when I enter the figures in A the rest of the figures must be calculated automatically

Thanks All,

Hoisting possible homework to others is not going to help you.
However, as far as I can see, based on your directions, doing it is impossible.
Column A is pretty much values, whose sum is counted at bottom.
Column C is pretty much same as column A (since values must be same, total is same also)
Column E gets more tricky since you want to compare it's value (which it doesn't have yet) to value of Column C and if C is greater, make it positive even if it should be negative. This is still doable the prefix +/- that is but... the actual number value that goes to E is still an enigma. IF value is just E-C as you mentioned and it cannot be negative so scratch the - it would be always same as in C or.. always 0
In any case, E2 column would pretty much have =IF(C2>0;C2;-C2) in there to take out the possible - prefix.

It all gets pretty cloudy at "total of C should also be same as total of B" You are aware that you already made Column C mirror column A in all values as condition1? There is no real way to take a sum of B2:B6 and have same result unless B2:B6 is also identical to A2:A6
Why the redundancy? it serves no purpose to have two identical columns, B and C
C to D column totals should also be identical??? third copy of A2:A6 data?
and D should also be identical to A? yep, four identical columns...

So only tricky part is the E column where supposedly you want to get the actual value of A (C is a copy of A) without it's +/-prefix

B2 =A2
B3 =A3
B4 =A4
B5 =A5
B6 =A6
B7 =SUM(B2:B6)
C2 =A2
C3 =A3
C4 =A4
C5 =A5
C6 =A6
C7 =SUM(C2:C6)
D2 =A2
D3 =A3
D4 =A4
D5 =A5
D6 =A6
D7 =SUM(D2:D6)
E2 =IF(C2>0;C2;-C2)
E3 =IF(C3>0;C3;-C3)
E4 =IF(C4>0;C4;-C4)
E5 =IF(C5>0;C5;-C5)
E6 =IF(C6>0;C6;-C6)
E7 =SUM(E2:E6)
