Would a reasonably priced spreadsheet (excel) for tax returns sell?

I am not posting for personal gain, more for market research! I am really getting to grips with excel & was thinking of ways to increase income.

If I was to develop a spreadsheet that people could use to work out their tax returns,
1. Would there be a market for it? or
2. Is there already loads of stuff out there?
3. How much would people pay? (Am thinking more along the lines of low cost, high volume)
4. What would people want to see - full expenses, automatic rounding of figures for tax, etc, full categorising, etc

I think I could put together a good useful tool, but obviously no point if no-one would want it. What do you all think - a good option to persue or dead in the water?

Thanks in advance

Surely HMRC have this covered with online assessment?

Yes, but was reading with interest that IR do not point out ways to save tax, etc, and thought it could be improved upon to include those areas?
