Hi JKPieterse ,
Unfortunately there is no logic behind it. It would differ depending on what I am doing. It would change for each worksheet as well. It just depends on what tax law I am applying as to what is or isn't deductible and I can't just take them out of the workpaper I need to show both totals.
I was hoping there would be a way other than to do it twice (eg, select the cells to create the formula and then select the cells again to format)

I would add a column into which you enter a 1 for each row you want to include in the sum and use SUMIFS to do the conditional summing. You can then also use a conditional format to color the cells that you are currently adding.
