The Goal Seek add-on for Google Sheetsᵀᴹ enables users to calculate the required value of a cell to achieve a desired formula value in another cell.
Listing updated:May 11, 2023
Works with:
3M+
Overview
If you know the result you need from a formula, you can use the Goal Seek add-on to find the missing value needed to achieve it.
You can use the add-on to conduct break-even analysis, or determine subcomponent targets when modeling future outcomes. You can also modify parameters, like max iterations, tolerance and max execution time that Goal Seek uses to determine a solution or load previous calculations.

There are three components to configure:
- the target value 
- the changing cell (where the formula is)
- the output value to achieve
