I would actually like "TOTAL" to be right aligned, but instead I have
tried inserting some non-breaking space before the word, and then
table does not align well with it. My font is fixed width, so it
should align correctly.

Could you please detail what you mean by does not align well?
Your table looks fine on my side.

You may also take a look at space entities "\_   " (each extra space is +0.5em)

I do not know how to set the cell alignment individually without
changing the whole column.

See attached frameshot.

I can see that it aligns well in `emacs -Q'. However no matter what
theme I tried in running Emacs I could not get it to align. Do you
know by what does that alignment depends? Then I could maybe remove
that dependency.

Is there a way to insert total in the next table for the previous table?

Then I could do something like this:


|       Date | Description | Amount |
|------------+-------------+--------|
| 2022-08-14 | Something   |     10 |
| 2022-08-14 | Someting    |     20 |
|------------+-------------+--------|

|------+-------+-------|
| <10> | <r11> | <6>   |
|      | TOTAL | XXXXX |
|------+-------+-------|

Then I could do some formula to place total from first table in the second table where is XXX?

It looks like you have some kind of minor mode that changes the display
of non-breaking space.

You may consider using https://github.com/Malabarba/elisp-bug-hunter to
hunt down the cause.
