Need functions to calculate taxes and broker fees, based on character standings. Need to plan module layout and method signatures for tax functions.

The formula for the broker fee is: (1 – 0.05 × BrokerRelationsSkillLevel) / (2 ^ (0.1400 × FactionStanding + 0.06000 × CorporationStanding))

The standings mentioned are the characters' standings towards the station owning race/corp. On top of that there is a 1.5% sales tax for all sales which is influenced by the "accounting" skill (additively!) to a minimum of .75%. The broker fee only occurs when using the advanced sales menu (which one wants to use for margin trading in 98% of the cases). Maybe figure out a way to determine if a broker fee was used or not, nitty gritty stuff for the end :P
