Default Blank Value not recognized?

Hello,
I have a spreadsheet that tallies expenses against the budget. I have set
up the following formula to show as a blank until an entry has been made:

=IF(D10=" "," ",G9-D10)

The problem is that it does not show a blank value, rather, it continues to
tally the total from the previous cell. See below:

D E F G H
9 $850 $650 $1,500 $13,250 $18,428
10 $13,250 $18,428
11 $13,250 $18,428

Any suggestions how to keep the G and H columns blank until there is an
entry in either D or E?

Thank you,
