Update the Level Cost Text Based on Country and State

By default, tax is typically added to a membership level during the checkout process, but only shows once a member reaches the Membership Confirmation page. 

This code recipe automatically calculates the tax and adds it to the level cost text on the checkout page as soon as a member selects their billing country and state. 

You will need to have Billing fields enabled on the checkout page, as well as make use of the State Dropdown Add On for this recipe to work as expected.
