After re-reading Jacob's post I have to agree I misunderstand. Here's a
better answer to his request.

// Create array of locales we want tax for
$locales = array("CA", "OR");
$payment = 1500;

ShowSalesTax($payment, $locales);

function ShowSalesTax($Amount , $States)
{
    //aray of states and their rates
    $StatesRates = array("CA" => 5 , "WA" =>  7, "OR" => 8);
    foreach($States as $state):
        print "Tax on $Amount in $state is " . $payment / 100 * 
$StatesRates[$state] . "\n";
    endforeach;
}

Obviously, it's only an example and needs refining.
