Default Externalizing formulas.

I have a spreadsheet that has to calculate a list price for thousands of
products from about ten different factors. The problem is that there are
about 12 different formulas to calculate the list price base AND those
formulas change frequently and are almost randomly assigned to the products.
Is there a way to externalize a formula in Excel to make changing the formula
easier?

List Price Factor 1 Factor 2 Factor 3 Factor 4 Factor 5 Etc.
Product 1 Formula 1 12 23 15 16 10
Product 2 Formula 2 2 14 9 5 6
Product 3 Formula 4 45 78 54 5 32
Product 4 Formula 1 34 75 54 5 67
Product 5 Formula 5 23 23 65 7 34
Product 6 Formula 3 1 54 67 55 23
Product 7 Formula 1 32 43 78 45 12
Product 8 Formula 5 23 67 89 3 43
Etc.

Formula 1 = (C + D)/F + E/G
Formula 2 = (C + D)/G + E/F
Formula 3 = (G + C)/F + E/G
Formula 4 = (D + D*2)/E + E/G
Formula 5 = (C + D)/(F*1.12) + E/G
Formula 6 = (C + D)/(F+G) + E/G
