Default Percentage Column Charts

Calculate your percentages in the worksheet, then use one of these utilities
to apply the calculations as data labels:

HI!! I think I am thinking too much about this and it is easier than it
seems, but I cant figure it out! hopefully someone can help.

So I need to create a chart with 2 column...plan vs. actual. But I need
each
of these bar columns to be separted by percentages of the categories
that
make them up.
EX: I need to make a comparison on how big of a percentage the Labor
part of
the Budget was when they planned and how it differs from the actual
execution.

Thanks for your help!
