Step 1: Make a table on another sheet with these example headings:
Choice, ItemID, UnitPrice
Step 2: Fill in the items in the table
Step 3: Select the table cells and name the range LU_Items
Step 4: Select only the Choice items (not including the heading) and
name that range LU_Choice
Now go back to your initial sheet:
Cell A1: DataValidation
--Allow: List
--Source: =LU_Choice
Cell B2(ItemID): =VLOOKUP(A1,LU_Items,2,0)
Cell G1(Qty Input cell): some number
Cell H1(Price): =VLOOKUP(A1,LU_Items,3,0)
Cell I1: =G1*H1
Does that help?
