I am having troubles getting a payroll calculation formula set up. We have annual increases for employees (tenure) and I need to factor in different pay rates for different job types.

Basic layout of Sheet 1
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 50"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]A
[/TD]
[TD]B
[/TD]
[TD]C
[/TD]
[TD]D
[/TD]
[TD]E
[/TD]
[TD]F
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]1
[/TD]
[TD]Employee
[/TD]
[TD]Hours
[/TD]
[TD]Tenure
[/TD]
[TD]Type
[/TD]
[TD]Income
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2
[/TD]
[TD]AAA
[/TD]
[TD]3
[/TD]
[TD]1-2
[/TD]
[TD]tech
[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]3
[/TD]
[TD]BBB

[TD]New

[TD]tech

[TD]4
[/TD]
[TD]CCC
[/TD]
[TD]3.5
[/TD]
[TD]3-4
[/TD]
[TD]acct
[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Sheet 2 is the pay rate grid
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 100"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]A
[/TD]
[TD]B
[/TD]
[TD]C
[/TD]
[TD]D

[TD]F

[TR]
[TD]1
[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]New
[/TD]
[TD]1-2
[/TD]
[TD]2-3
[/TD]
[TD]3-4
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2
[/TD]
[TD]tech
[/TD]
[TD]10
[/TD]
[TD]10.25
[/TD]
[TD]10.50
[/TD]
[TD]10.75
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]3
[/TD]
[TD]acct
[/TD]
[TD]11
[/TD]
[TD]11.25
[/TD]
[TD]11.50
[/TD]
[TD]10.75
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]4
[/TD]
[TD]other
[/TD]
[TD]12
[/TD]
[TD]12.25
[/TD]
[TD]12.50
[/TD]
[TD]12.75
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

What I am trying to get is a formula that will find the pay rate when it matches the tenure and the job type, then multiply that rate times the number of hours.
 

Excel Facts

Difference between two dates
Secret function! Use =DATEDIF(A2,B2,"Y")&" years"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"YM")&" months"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"MD")&" days"
If the job types and tenures are unique, try

=B2*SUMPRODUCT((C2=Sheet2!$B$1:$E$1)*(D2=Sheet2!$A$2:$A$4),Sheet2!$B$2:$E$4)
