Word textmark sums numbers in whole line

Dear community

My table in word has the following content. It is used to calculate the prices for an offer.

The formula in cell (4) should be the sum of (1), (2) and (3):

Unfortunately, if i name the cell (3) with "tax", the variable "tax" is not 125.15, but the sum of 125.15 and 0.081 which equals the sum of all numbers in this line. I am able to reproduce this with any numbers and dont have a solution for just using 125.15 as "tax".

Since I have already spent a lot of time with research, I hope that one of you can help me out.

Thanks! Tinuit

      The documents have multiple pages. Editing is easiest in Word for our employees and the styling of the document is best. 

      Doing this in Excel, the calculation would be correct, but editing is much more difficult and the layout is bad...

      If you can help me out with the problem, it would be very appreciated.
