Excluding VAT for selected item
 

I am using a spreadsheet which uses a macro to copy and pasted products onto
a selected area on the same worksheet. One of the items requires 0 VAT. Is
there anyway this can be achieved when the item could appear in one of 46
rows, it is always the last item to be shown on the pasted list, although it
is dependant on what is pasted above it as to which row it will be pasted.

What's the VBA code you're using for the macro? Essentially you would need
to modify it to tell Excel to set the VAT for the last row of the relevant
range to 0.

If you don't know how to view the code behind a macro, right-click the tab
in which the macro operates and select View Code. Then copy all the code
into this post so that someone can take a look at it.

Calculate the last row like so

LastRow = Cells(Rows.Count,"A").End(xlUp).Row

change the "A" to the actual column.

Then you can add vat to that item.

One other approach, assuming your data caters for it, is to hold a
code for the level of VAT against each product.

e.g. Product A (standard rate) code TS
Product B (zero rated) code T0
product C (Exempt VAT) TE
Product D (Reduced Rate) TR

Then when your macro copies the product, if it also copied the VAT
code, your VAT calculation formula could be made to be automatic by
using a lookup of the VAT code in a simple VAT rate table.

If you don't want to carry an extra field for VAT, you might like to
consider building the VAT code in with the Product name or code.

e.g. Product A (TS)

then use some string slicing in the VAT formula to identify the two
character VAT code.
