Default create a formula based on cell color

Hi,

I was wondering if there was a formula to add up cells based on the cell
color? These cells have names in them and no numbers

For example:

Column A Column B
white cell yellow cell
white cell white cell
yellow cell yellow cell

I need the cells that are yellow to equal 25 and the cells with no color to
equal 45.

This spreadsheet is to total the pay for about 100 people and the yellow
cells are not all in a column.

Is there a formula along the lines of: if a person's name is in a yellow
cell, then the dollar amount associated with the cell = 25

Sorry this is so long, I wasn't sure how else to explain it.

Thanks for the help,

Laura
