The usual way is to use a text box with an expression like:

=Sum([cost field])
 
I'm in design view of the report, where do I insert this expression?
I clicked on page footer to insert this expression & it did not work

Put the text box with that expression in the **report**
footer. Use the View menu if the report doesn't have the
report footer section.
