It's interesting that you use pH as an example in that pH has got to be the least predictable value we measure in pool care. pH is affected by many interactions in the pool and trying to calculate the affect of a treatment is rough estimation at best.

Your K-2006 does have an answer to this: it includes Acid and Base Demand Tests. These let you measure the amount of treatment you'll need to adjust pH. It works like this: Measure pH, if it's low, add Base Demand counting drops until pH is where you want (Acid Demand works same way) - look up number of drops of treatment in the tables in the book that comes with K-2006 and find treatment dose.

The book has tables for other treatments as well - This may be what you're looking for.

Treat the doses you get from these tables as loose approximations only. They are helpful in determining how much of a chemical to buy and have on hand but less useful when it comes to actually treating your pool. At most, use half of any recommended dose, let it mix, measure, redose. This way (measure, dose, measure, dose, ...) you can avoid the inevitable see-saw of chasing numbers.
