 * Hi! I´m trying to make a resume of savings in a theoretically donation transaction
   but I´m been unable to do it.
 * The formula is: 1-250 saves 80% 
   and <250 is: first 250, 80% And the rest 40%
   For X <= 250€: X*0.8For X > 250€: (250*0.8) + (X-250)*0.4Any idea how to construct
   the ‘IF’ to work properly and as expected? formula/sentence?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fproblem-with-the-if-command%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hello [@informativos](https://wordpress.org/support/users/informativos/)
 * Your equation does not need an “if” conditional statement of the “IF” operation.
   You can implement the process with basic mathematical operations.
 * Assuming the field for donation is the fieldname123. The equation in the calculated
   field can be implemented as follows:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       MIN(fieldname1, 250)*0.8+MAX(fieldname1-250, 0)*0.4
       ```
   
 * Best regards.
