Hi,

 

I have a dataset with multiple ID's that I want to reduce to unique ID's through their respective weightings.

 

For example, the dataset below shows ID, some additional variables required (Var1, Var2) and the weighting (wt).

idvar1var2wtAR_Q0AR_Q1AR_Q2AR_Q3AR_Q4AR_Q5
1xx3450.5101112131415
1xx3450.3505152535455
1xx3450.2202122232425
2df3210.7303132333435
2df3210.1404142434445
2df3210.2505152535455

 

I need to create multiple each AR_Qx value by the weighting and sum up the rows by ID so it looks like this. For example AR_Q5 is calculated as (15*0.5)+(55*0.3)+(25*0.2)=29

 

idvar1var2AR_Q0AR_Q1AR_Q2AR_Q3AR_Q4AR_Q5
1xx345242526272829
2df321353637383940

 

What is the most efficient way of performing this calculation. At the moment I am doing this in Excel.

 

Note: Unfortunately I am unable to modify the source dataset as it is part of another process.

 

Thanks in advance.
