As well as lots of notes about counting and sorting with colours, Chip
Pearson has a free download which incorporates the functions described
here:

Hi,

Once the color numbers are determined (using the macro below), you can then
use the sumif worksheet function to subtotal by color.

The following macro assumes that you have a blank column next to the numbers
with different font colors, and that you have activated the first cell in the
range of numbers.

Sub ColorNumber()

x = ActiveCell.Row
y = ActiveCell.Column

Do While Cells(x, y).Value <> ""

ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1) = ActiveCell.Font.Color
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
x = x + 1

Loop

End Sub
