Here's another problem I have finally managed to fix...

In my case, all my products show up incl. tax. My shipping costs are also incl. tax. All was fine, except for the fact that my checkout confirmation showed the total tax amount on the products and the tax amount on shipping seperately. I have searched everywhere, but no one had an answer (I must also add that the search function of this forum is seriously flawed).

Here's how I fixed it:
Admin -> Locations/Taxes -> Tax Rates. Edit your tax rate and add priority 1 (ONE). Now shipping and good tax will be added together.

Hope this helps. I never get any reply to any of my questions, so perhaps with this little trick it saves you from a similar dissapointment.
