I'm not sure to have understand your request.

Below some from my experience with the CE version, I'm not sure is the same with the EE version.

The Tax Area / Tax Zone / Tax Class are usefull to calculate V.A.T. or Taxes that must be applied to the retail price , the "Price Ex Tax" into the Product Details panel of the admin console.

The shipping cost are calculate depending of the :
- weight of the product
- one of shipping modules installed (the shipping method choosed during the checkout phase that is related to the shipping modules installed)
- The shipping address

To have different shipping cost for the same weight but different shipping address (areas or zone) is possible to install the shipping module called "Zones" that allow the configuration of a "shipping costs table" with different cost for different weight ranges for a shipping area, for example US.
In this way, if different products with different weights are into the cart the sum of all the weights is calculate and the price of shipping cost is choosed from the shipping costs table. It Is the tipical  method used when all the product buy are packed into the same pack. If you need that each  products into the cart is packed into its own pack with its own shipping cost , I'm not sure this is possible, I suppose that more than one order  must be done , one for each product.


If you want that taxes are apply to each price of the products into the cart, if I remember well you must set
Configuration-> Stock and Orders -> Tax Quantity Rule = 2 (instead of 1)
(i suggest you to ask to a KK expert a confirmation of this)
Note: From a Display point of view , into the summary of the order only one row will be displayed with the descriptions of the taxes applied , for example if you have 2 product into the cart, the first is a taxable good with a rate of 5% and the second a taxable good with a rate of 21%, something like this will be displayed :

Taxable Goods 5% + Taxable Goods 21%: The amount of the taxes applied to the retail prices.

Best regards.

Even if a long time is past from the last post, I leave some note and suggestions.

Consider that I have the CE and not the EE, but I have made a test that probably is usefull for this problem:

All the Tax Rates must be created for the same Tax Area (or Tax Zone) and  associated to the same Tax Class.

In this way is created a sort of cumulative tax (the sum of all the different tax rates) that is applied to the retail price.

For example suppose to create the tax rates with:
- Description = GST (5%)
- Tax Class = Taxable Goods
- Tax area =  Manitoba Tax Area (you must to create this before)
- Rate = 5
- Priority = 1

and

- Description = PST (7%)
- Tax Class = Taxable Goods
- Tax area =  Manitoba Tax Area
- Rate = 7
- Priority = 1


Will be displayed something like this:

Product Quantity = 1
Product Price = $100
GST (5%) + PST (7%) = $12
Total = $112


Ensure you have installed in:
Modules->Order Totals

Tax and Sub-Totals modules

In case of Tax modules , Display Tax radio button must be set to "true"


Configuration-> Display Prices with Tax must be set to true.

Finally if you want that calculations are applied item by item and not to the sum of all retail prices of several item into the chart, if i remember well you must set

Configuration-> Stock and Orders -> Tax Quantity Rule = 2 (instead of 1)
(i suggest you to ask to a KK expert a confirmation of this)
