Need help on counting text within certain criteria

I have a spreadsheet that I am setting up to show holidays and sickness days.
The table looks like this:


Name Week 1 Week 2
M T W T F M T W T F

EMPLOYEE F F H F F

F = Full day holiday
H = Half day holiday

This bit is easy because I used Countif to calculate the number of days.
However, I need to convert it to hours which is a little more complicated.
The hours worked are Monday - Thursday 8.5 Hours, Friday - 5 hours. Only
five fridays per year can be taken as holiday.

I need a formula that will count the number of F entries and multiply it by
8.5 except if it is a Friday which be multiplied by 5. How do I do this?

Enter this formula in G4:
=8.5*SUMPRODUCT(--(B4:F4="F"),--(B2:F2<>"F"))
+5*SUMPRODUCT(--(B4:F4="F"),--(B2:F2="F"))
A B C D E F G
1 Name Week 1
2 M T W T F
3
4 EMPLOYEE F F H F formula

Assuming the day code is in B2:IV2, and the F/H codes are in B3:M3 (then 4,
etc) the total for row 3 is]

=SUM(IF($B3:$IV3<>"",IF($B3:$IV3="F",IF($B$2:$IV$2="F",4,8),IF($B$2:$IV$2="F
",2.5,5))))

which is an array formula, it should be committed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter, not
just Enter.

Assuming your day headers (MTWTF) are in row #2, starting with col C
and your hours total in col B
B1: =SUMPRODUCT((C3:AZ3="F")*(((C$2:AZ$2="F")*5)+(C$2:AZ$2<>"F")*8.5))
