Automate a Calculated Field

Hi All,

 

I want to automate the below calculated field "Project Status". Like, I want to provide users options to choose $5k, $10K or 5%, 10% as the options to map project as "OPEN/CLOSE". I don't want user to update the below code. I want a simple way to make the selections.
