Default How do I multiply either column 1 or column 2 by same multiplier?

assuming that the total is defined as #units X old work price (unless of
course there is a new work price, then it would be #units X new work price).
A2: #units, B2: old work price, C2: new work price
D2: =IF(C2="",B2,C2)*A2
If this isn't what you are looking for, give more info, based on what column
of what kind of data is entered?
