    Need help picking right formula?

    This is hard for me to explain. But here it goes.
    A1=Widget1
    A2=Left Handed
    A3=Red
    A4=Mod2
    A5=PriceLevel2
    A6=Unit Price

    A1 through A5 you can select various options (e.g. A1 could Equal any one of the following: Widget1, Widget2, Widget3 or Widget4)

    Trying to right a formula where a value could automatically be entered in A6 based on which values are in A1 to A5.

    Example 1: A6=$500 if (A1=Widget1, A2=Left Handed, A3=Red, A4=Mod2, 5=PriceLevel2).

    A6 would = $400 if ((A1=Widget3, A2=Right Handed, A3=White, A4=Mod2, 5=PriceLevel4).

    Any suggestions.

    You need to create some other tables with the options and the prices

    the either by vlookup or sumproduct or combine the them to get a result

    We do not know if the options differ in price for different models for example
    If every option has 5 values and it is a combination of everything, so lets say metalic paint is not just £500 extra on any car you would have 5x5x5x5x5 =3125 values in the table and sumproduct would work best. We do not know if the options are additive of multiplicative. You need to provide some data and explain in a bit more detail

    Regards
