Help! If cell B12 >= 0, then I need the answer to be calculated based on the
formual "B12 * .40". If cell B12 < 0, then the answer is zero.

How do I do this?

Hi,

Try this

=MAX(0,B12*0.4)

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.

>>based on the formual "B12 * .40".
>=(B12>=0)*0.4

Ooops!

Disregard that formula.

Here's a corrected version:

=(B12>0)*(B12*0.4)
