    I think that you will run into issues with your current set up of tables. You would be better served to have your ins and outs in the same table. Look at this template that MS has created to see how they set it up.

    This might help you to design your db in a fashion that will be easy to retrieve your data.

    You don't want to be storing your calculations in your tables, but rather have them calculated in Queries as you need the information.

    Your current setup is more spreadsheet mindset versus database. The concepts are very different.
