Are you looking for something like this
M = [1 1 2 60;
2 3 2 90;
3 1 3 240;
4 2 3 200;
5 3 3 160];
result = splitapply(@sum, M(:,4), M(:,2))
Result
>> result
result =
300
200
250

In that case, you can just use logical indexing
M = [1 1 2 60;
2 3 2 90;
3 1 3 240;
4 2 3 200;
5 3 3 160];
idx1 = M(:,2)==2;
idx2 = M(:,3)==2;
result = sum(M(idx1,4))-sum(M(idx2,4))
