Hi Jim

Ensure your table has a Total Row

In the row below the Total row, enter a space in column C and a space in
column D. This will ensure that you keep one blank row below your data
and the row with the tax amount.

2 rows under the Total row enter Tax in column C and the appropriate
formula for tax, being the Total value in column D * tax rate

2 rows below the Word tax, enter Grand Total in column C and the
relevant formula in column V

As you create more rows in the body of your table, the Tax and Grand
Total rows will move down accordingly (or up, if you delete rows from
the table.
