VAR _internetSales = [Internet Sales]
RETURN _internetSalesTaxed - _cogsTaxed
To:
VAR _internetSalesTaxed = [Internet Sales] * 1.25
VAR _cogsTaxed = [Cost of Sales] * 1.25

Why is Tabular Editor suggesting this?
Unused variables can make your code harder to read and understand. By removing them, you make your code more concise and easier to maintain.
An unused variable is also an indication that the code may contain a mistake, or that the variable was intended to be used for something that was later removed. By removing the variable, you avoid potential confusion for other developers who may be reading your code.
