Is there a way to print what a formula field is in a Report Footer?

I checked the special fields section and I see that you can show a record select but is there anyway to have it print what a formula field is in a report footer so that if the Formula field changes that would populate in a footer.
 
As far as I know, there is not.

You can get a hard copy of formulas and other details using File > Export > Export Report > Report Definition.

You could then paste back the formula to a text field displayed on the report. But it would be up to you to keep it accurate if the rules ever changed.
