I'm making a budgeting for renting equipment at a shop. Their pricing is as follow.
Day 1 costs 40
Day 2 costs day1+day1/2
Day 3 costs day2+day1/2
etc.
I want to put this in excel but I have no idea how to do it.
On each row I have a product with the first day cost, the amount of days I want to rent it and the total price.
Anyone got ideas? Thanks!

I figured it out after taking a quick look in my statistics book:
a_n = a_1+(n-1)*d where d is the arithmetic difference
I just used this in my grand total cell and i got it to work
