Default Return an absolutely empty cell ... but not ""

e.g. b10 =if(isna(vlookup(a10,table,2,false)),"",vlookup(a1 0,table,2,false))
c10 contains 5%
d10 = b10*c10

In an "if" formula, I like to use "" to make all #n/a, #value and zero to be
disapeared. However, it returns #value when I need to further calculate with
reference those cell contain "" (e.g. d10). I've tested the cell with "" by
using "isblank", it is a non-blanked cell even it displays nothing.

If I do not like to make another "if formula" under colume d to fix it, what
formula should I use to return an absolutely empty cell (rather than "" or 0)
under column b.
