 Is it possible to have a list of tasks each with a formula to track
 progress in percentage based on other subtasks? The result will look
 like this:

 * [ 30%] Project Name
 ** [ 50%] Task A
 ** [ 10%] Task B

You cannot do this with Org percentage cookies, but you can do it
by using a dedicated property.  The property for each entry would
contain a percentage value, then the column sum can display a formula
of your own.

See the manual and this turorial

for a start.

[O] Spreadsheet formula evaluation without using tables?

* [ 30%] Project Name
** [ 50%] Task A
** [ 10%] Task B

This is what my formula in lisp will look like:

** [**(format %3d (+ (* TASKA 0.5) (* TASKB 0.5) ))**%] Project Name*
*** [**(format %3d *(setq TASKA 50)
*%] Task A*
*** [**(format %3d *(setq TASKA 10)


*%] Task B*
All I need to do is evaluate the code in org-mode to get the result.
Is this possible?
