Default Pull corresponding data from drop down list

I created a list of part numbers and prices on one worksheet,"PriceList" in
two columns. (A=Name, B=$) On another worksheet "Configure", in the same
workbook I have one cell that is a drop down list of the part names(P2). I
want the next cell over (Q2) to pull the corresponding price when I choose
the part number from the list. Thanks in advance for your assistance!
