So, you want the quantity subtotal by story and grand total on one line.

No, AFAIK, it is not possible to generate this kind of report within AC by using just IS or a list scheme. (You could do it - only as a theoretical point, but not a practical one - by using some strange GDL scripting and a temporary external file.)

AFAIK, the best way to produce this kind of thing is to export the quantity info from the list scheme (component or otherwise) or the I.S. and to process it in Excel or Access/Filemaker. You could write a script there to avoid the manual work.

Why you not force GS to improve AC?
