Hi,

You will have to write 2 different workflows to update same field for 2 different conditions. Workflow don't allow conditional update.

You can write a trigger of that object to update multiple fields depending upon conditions. 

Thanks

Hello,

You can simply use a formullae field for this requirement.
No need to use a workflow.

Yes formula field will work but you have create a new formula field or change type of existing field to formula and then right formula.

Hello,
Your formullae should be like 
IF(AND(Stage= 'A', Type = 'B'),5,
    IF(AND(Stage = 'A' ,Type = 'E'),10,0)
)
