Need help

I have a technical question for a formula or conditional formatting issue. I have the following spreadsheet. I have certain cells which are colour coded. I would like to have the total cells, total only the similar coloured cells automatically rather than manually.

 

For example: Cells in the  "F" Column are colour coded. Each Colour code has a distinct total Cell in this case cell F4 and those similarily coloured are totalled in N7. 

F5 and similarly coloured cells are totalled in L7 and so on.

 

What I want to do is "IF" there is a amount listed in Column "G" that corresponding number is added to the total in the associated total column. This would be done for each colour under F/C Class

I'm not aware of any built-in way to count/sum by color. But, can't you just sum by the classification code using sumif?

In cell K8:
=SUMIF($F$4:$F$59,K7,$G$4:$G$59)

and copy across. Adjust the ranges if you need to (cell L8 total appears to include rows greater than 58 to get 74, but N8 and O8 don't)?

By the way, I found no one conditional formatting rule here, are they applied?
