Not sure why my referenced cell moves down when I select the next row (see pic)
The first pic aligns the Rate per/hr perfectly (at bottom of sheet) however as seen in the second pic as soon as I select the next row the Rate Per/hr moves down and thus makes the calculation wrong. Not sure what I'm doing wrong? Does the Rate per/hr need to be in a separate sheet? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need to use the '$' to keep the reference cell the same.
This is referred to as 'Fixed' or 'Absolute' reference
You can use it before both the column and row number, i.e. [Assigned To]$43 in your picture
