#value error mac excel 2016 array formula

Question

I'm getting a #value error in Excel 2016 on a mac.

Formula:

=MEDIAN(IF('Instructional RAW'!$C:$C,'Lead Teacher (42)'!$E$12,IF('Instructional RAW'!$G:$G,'Lead Teacher (42)'!E$28,'Instructional RAW'!$R:$R)))

Adding dummy data:

Job Code    Average Salary  Type
42  $60,000 Single site
42  $26,000 Single site
42  $26,500 Multi site
40  $62,000 Single site
49  $40,000 Multi site
42  $45,000 Multi site
21  $33,000 Single site
43  $30,000 Multi site
42  $51,500 Single site

Desired outcome: calculate the median salary based on a set of conditions - job code = 42, school type = single site.

When clicking ctrl+shift+enter, I get the value error. Thoughts?

Answer 1

Using the following formula where A column has Job Type, B column has Average Salary and C column has Salary Type should work.

=MEDIAN(IF(A2:A10=42,IF(C2:C10="Single site",B2:B10,""),""))

Apply the formula using ctrl + shift + enter.

Also be sure that Average Salary is in a numeric format (number, currency etc.).
