Default If calculations

I need to calculate sales tax from two states with different sales taxes. I
want to designate one cell with a T or N and then have my invoice calculate
the sales tax pertaning to that state depending on what that cell has in it.
How do I build this formula?

Default If calculations

Something like:

=IF(A1="T",6.5%,IF(A1="N",5%,0))

where A1 contains T or N (and I've guessed the tax rates).

Hope this helps.

You're welcome.

Did I guess right?
