Best (or okayest) practice for adding prices connected to checkbox items

I have a form that has multiple checkbox items.  As shown below:

Eventually I want to send someone a cost associated with each of these selections.  For example, if Lab1 is worth $5, Lab 2 is worth $10, and Lab 3 is worth $15.   How can I connect these prices to the checkboxes?  I want my flow to add up whatever they select, but I'm not sure how to have the costs associated with the checkboxes.  I thought about just adding them as variables in my flow, but there may be hundreds of these.  Is there a way to create the checkboxes from a spreadsheet, and then have the prices add up somewhere later?  What is a normal workflow for this?

    I mean you could maintain a SharePoint list where you store the associated costs and then using a Apply to each to grab them in an automate, but the easier solution would be to use said list as the Items property for a gallery in powerapps.

    No, these are checkboxes in a form.  I'm beginning to see that I need to use Powerapps instead though.

    Are these checkboxes in a powerapp?
