Default What if I want the answer to be in Dollars or Percentage.

I used a custom format of:

[3]0.00%;$0.00

and entered this to see this
1 $1.00
1.4 $1.40
2 $2.00
3 $3.00
4 400.00%
5 500.00%

But maybe you really meant:
[<1]0.00%;$0.00

and entered this to see this
.5 50.00%
.75 75.00%
1 $1.00
1.4 $1.40
2 $2.00
3 $3.00
4 $4.00
5 $5.00

Using IF in the formula, If a client chooses option 1,2 or 3, the answer is
in dollars. If they choose 4 or 5, I want the answer to be in percentage.
What do I have to add in the formula if the answer has to be in Percentage
or in Dollars.
