Default Match with or without "S" ending


Hello,
Here's my formula for an index and match where cell G1 has the data of
Development Cost.

=INDEX($A$1:$B$7,MATCH(TRIM(G1),$A$1:$A$7,0),2)

What's an improved formula for matching $A$1:$B$7 to include
Development Costs <<< with the "S" at the end? Sometimes, a person
omits or adds "S" at the end and this formula doesn't recognize it.

I don't want to trim off column G datas with "S" ending because some
words do require a "S" at the end ie. Utilities.

Thanks in advance,
Ricky
