Problem statement#1
We have enabled 'Include sales tax in product price and shipping rate' option from the 'Taxes and duties' section of Shopify dashboard as shown in the below screenshot.
From your Shopify admin, go to Settings > Taxes and duties
Based on above configurations, Is it possible to show net of VAT prices to the Wholesale customers?
Problem Statement#2
How do we add/show VAT to the total for the wholesale prices? We can't set the price to automatically have this included, as our European dealers don't pay VAT, so the price displayed needs to be excluding VAT, but then added at the end with a breakdown of this. Please can you advise if this is at all possible?
Custom Solution
As you have enabled 'Include sales tax in product price and shipping rate' option, so by default the tax is included in the prices showing up on different pages such as home collection, product, cart and checkout pages.
However, there is only 1 case where we can display the VAT excluded prices on the home, collection, product and cart pages but we can't modify the checkout page where VAT included prices will appear back.
You would need to set up Wholesale Prices including VAT for the wholesale customers in the application pricing rules. We can write custom script to show the prices excluding taxes on home, collection, product and cart pages for the wholesale customers. On the cart page or/and cart drawer, we can display the tax amount separately for the Wholesale customers.
Note, We can't modify the checkout page to show the tax amount separately. On the checkout page, the Wholesale customer will see wholesale prices including VAT that you originally set up in the application pricing rule.

Frequently asked questions
Do we need to put in the +VAT price or EX VAT price in the Wholesale Pricing rule?
It's required to set up the VAT included price in the Discount rule under the wholesale application dashboard, then our custom script will show the VAT excluded prices automatically on the collection, product and cart pages. The VAT included price you enter in the discount rule will appear on the checkout page.
