how can a text on a cell equal a value on another cell?
1 on column A = cost on column B. The idea is to link another sheet to column A ( 1 ) which represents cost on column B

@Simon Martinez you can use INDEX/MATCH function to index and return the correct value from another sheet.
it would look something like =INDEX({cost}, MATCH(level@row, {level},0))
- {cost} -> is a cross sheet reference to the cost table
- level@row -> is the value to match on the sheet that you want to populate the cost
- {level} -> is a cross sheet reference to the level on the cost table sheet

I hope you're well and safe!
To add to Garrett's excellent advice/answer.
Here's another example that shows the structure of an INDEX/MATCH formula.
=INDEX({ColumnWithTheValueYouWantToShow}; MATCH(CellThatHaveTheValueToMatch@row; {ColumnWithTheValueToMatchAgainsTheCell}; 0))
Depending on your country/region, you'll need to exchange the comma to a period and the semi-colon to a comma.
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!
