so I have reference cell say (B49) which has been formatted with a drop down list. The three entries are 1) Need, 2) Want, and 3) is Unsure. Now in F49 is where I want to get the answer to my IFS so if B49 is "Need" the results of F49 should be $10.00 if the results in B49 is "want" results in F49 should come to only $5.00 and finally if B49 is "Unsure" results should be zero in F49.

Can anyone help me on this please.

Thanks

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
I don't know if you need IFS necessarily. Have you tried CHOOSE?

F49 =CHOOSE(MATCH(B49, {"need","want","unsure"}, 0), 10, 5, 0)

or also you could use VLOOKUP:

F49 =VLOOKUP(B49, {"need",10;"want",5;"unsure",0}, 2, FALSE)

I agree with you, there are many ways to get the expected result, simply Vlookup, Lookup, Index+match, etc.

=VLOOKUP(B49,{"need",10;"want",5;"unsure",0},2,)
