The original table is a spreadsheet.  I removed blank, and subtotal lines to reduce confusion.  But I can see your point.

Example calculation.  
Plan "G", starting at the top of the table and reading down.
The member selects  basic service ($50), unlimited space option ($100) and special phone option ($50) for a total of $200 worth of services.  Hst is $30, so their total bill is $230.  Contributions over $200 allow for a PPP account, so the member would get this service, in addition to the selected services.

The 'donation' row indicates the amount required to reach PPP account status.

Note under plan "A", you could have an IP that receives all the services, short of a PPP account, but at no charge.  The Scottish Heritage site could be such an example.  However, beyond the basic package (first row) I think that some sort of approval process should be in place, rather than an automatic provision of service.
