Gosh, I haven't done it for years, bug we cannot allow
that you turn your back on Scribus and play with the
nasty, nasty Acrobat, can we:)

Anyway: you need 2 text fields, name them field1 and
field2 and a check box for VAT, name it  checkbox1:

field1: it's for entering the price, set its format to
'number'

field2: set it to read only and its format to
"number", go to the calculate tab, and enter this
custom script (hackers on the list please forgive
me:):

//start

var f = this.getField('field1');
var v = this.getField('checkbox1');
if(v.value=='Yes')
	var vat = f.value * 0.175;
else
	var vat = 0;

event.value= f.value * 3 + vat; 

//end

I'm attaching two test files for you to play with

cheers
Maciej
