Today I've updated my eBay Markup spreadsheet to version 1.3. The purpose of the markup spreadsheet is to tell you what to charge for your items (or what to charge for S&H) to receive the amount you want after fees for a large number of items at once. Here's what's new in version 1.3. (See Screenshot).

The yellow column is where you enter your tax rate (for example 6%) and the red column is where you'll see the calculated tax amount show up.

Both of these fields are completely optional. These new fields are right next to the fields for your buyer's name, address and eBay ID.
