Adding total dollars based on specific data from another column
 

I have a cell I'm trying to calculate the total dollars based on specific
criteria from a column of data. Example, column A has 25 cells with data
like A, B, C, D, E, F, and a second column with dollar amounts associated
with each of these outcomes, i.e. A=$5, B=$2, C=$9 etc. I want to create a
formula in a different cell that tells me "if cell = A for $5 then what is
the total dollar amount. A "if then" scenario....Any help????

Hi!

Maybe this:

=SUMIF(A1:A25,"A",B1:B25)
