Hello all,

I wrote a function which counts price of product from retail price and
discount. It works. But I need to count price with tax of same
product. The best way is to use counted price and add only a tax. I
would like to do by this way:

SELECT count_price(retail, discount) AS price, count_price_tax(price,
tax) FROM foo.

But PostgreSQL reports that "price" column doesn't exist. It doesn't
exist, but is counted by first calling "count_price()" function.

Is there some way how I shouldn't count these prices twice and use
just counted price?
