iam needing to enter some gas receipt expenses into a colum but i need to
enter the total amount of the receipt then i have to some how subtract the
tax amount from that. anyone know what i need to do to? I have to seperate
the two and have the two seperate coloums sum????Help. iam still learning....
 
Column A has the total for each receipt.

Assuming a constant tax rate of 30%..........B1 has the formula

=IF(A1="","",A1*.7)

C1 has the formula

=IF(A1="","",A1*.3)

Copy both cells down using drag/copy on the fill handle.

In D1 enter =SUM(B:B)

In E1 enter =SUM(C:C)

Do not copy those down.

Wow! 30%! Is that a real world figure Gord?
We have a 10% Goods And Services Tax here
and I think that's pretty steep.
