how to pull information from an account to put it on a contact

i am trying to create a new field on all contacts that pulls from a picklist of 3 different options that is currently on the account side. i am just trying to create a formula that will pull the word "prospect, active, or inactive" and put it on the contact. so on the account side under account information there is the "Type" of company with three options prospect, active, inactive. i cannot seem to create a formula that will pull this informantion and put it on the contact side. any thoughts?
