Your question appears to be incomplete. Can you complete it.

Thank you for your hint  Robbins @Doug_Robbins_Word_MVP 

 

The question is how can make a function or a scenario so I let the user that help him choose the number of pages, type of cover, and the quantity of the printed books as those are the major factors to evaluate the price of the printed books, note that the data are applicable to expand to several tens of items.

The way I would go about it would be to create a userform containing either radio buttons or comboboxes for each of the variables:

Number of pages

Paper type

Cover type

and then, depending upon the selections made, compute the cost based on those selections

@Elaref_S_BEN_OTMAN 

For 2-way lookups reverting to INDEX/MATCH is often simplest.

The alternative formula takes advantage of Excel 365 to create a more verbose formula

= LET(
    qtyLevel,    XMATCH(qtyOrdered,volume,1),
    paperOption, XMATCH(paperOrdered,paperType),
    coverOption, XMATCH(coverOrdered,coverType),
    cost, INDEX(paperCost, paperOption, qtyLevel)
        + INDEX(coverCost, coverOption, qtyLevel),
    IFERROR(cost, "")
  )
Peter I do appreciate so much your reply.
