Default Progressive pricing

I run a copy shop and want to calculate the total price based on a scale
as follows:

1 - 100 20p
101 - 250 15p
251 - 500 10p
500+ 8p

If the total copies are 400, the total price should be:

100 @ 20p = £20
150 @ 15p = £22.50
150 @ 10p = £15.00

Total price = £57.50

If the total copies are entered in H5 and the total to be paid is shown
in H14, please give the formula and the cell into which it must go.

I have tried to follow other peoples explanations without success,
that's why I have included the information above.

Thanks in anticipation of saving my sanity


Looks to me that the total for 400 copies should be £40.00.
