Qlik Sense - Reuse calculated field in the same load script

Dear Community,

How to reuse calculated field in the same load script?

[Table]:

LOAD

  [Invoice No]

, [Quantity]

, [Price]

, [Quantity] * [Price] AS [Amount]

, [Amount]  * {Rate] AS [GST]

FROM [lib://Files/table.xlsx]

(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1);

In the same load script, same table

[GST] =  [Amount] * {Rate] AS [GST]

instead of

[GST] = ( [Quantity] * [Price] ) * {Rate] AS [GST]
