Which Excel Formula?
That expectation was not a part of your original query. I'm on my way out of my office now, but if you can provide a more complete idea of what your sheet looks like, I or somebody else can help. For example, do the "Standard" and values of the Variances stay the same all the way down, or are those line specific ? If it's possible for you to put a copy of your actual spreadsheet on OneDrive or GoogleDrive with a link here that grants access, we could see exactly what you're working with.
As I noted before, you can change from named ranges to cell references and then make them absolute (e.g., $E$2) or relative (E2) as needed.
Sorry about that! Here's a link of what I'm trying to do..

Here you go. Let me know if this works for you. Once again, because those standard cost and variances are standard, there's no reason to repeat them every line. Use absolute references or named range, the latter being what I did here.
