Thanks for reading

In Cell (A1) I have a drop down menu that has a validated series of billing
codes: None, 2010, 2011, 2012, 3010, 3011, 3012

In Cell (A2) I would like to assign a number value that applies to each
billing code in (A1). None = 0, 2010 =27.5, 2011 =100, 2012 =12.50,
3010=27.5, 3011 =100, 3012 =12.5.

So in Cell (A2), I need a forumla that will read cell (A1) once the value is
selected from the drop down menu and assign the correct value (above) to cell
(A2)

Is this possible?

=LOOKUP(A1,{"None",2010,2011,2012,3010,2011,3012}, {0,27.5,100,12.5,27.5,100,12.5})

entered in A2

You could place your parameters in a datalist, located in an out-of-the-way
location in your sheet, and then use a formula with the Vlookup() function
in A2.

Check out this web page of Debra Dalgleish for instructions:

Thanks for the feedback.

Note RD's advice about using a table and VLOOKUP.

That would give you more flexibility for making changes if need be.
