Default complex if statement

Since you havent mentioned about data in both Columns B and C; I assume you
will have either colB or ColC will have data...Try the below formula in Cell
A1 and copy down as required

(all in one line)
=IF(OR(B1&C1="F",B1&C1="A"),20,
IF(OR(B1&C1="H",B1&C1="B"),10,SUM(D1:G1)))

If this post helps click Yes

column B contains a value of either "F" or "H" or blank
column C contains a value of either "A" or B" or blank
columns D-G contain various numeric values

In column A here is what I want to be returned:

if column B="F" return the value of 20; if column B="H" return the value of
10; if column B is blank, add together the values in columns D-G

AND

if column C="A" return the value of 20; if column C="B"= return the value of
10; if colum C is blank, add together the values in columns D-G (and column B)
