Default Psostive value

Hi Folks..

I have a simple percentage formula as....
=(A2-A1)/A1%
=(B2-A1)/A1%
and so on...
Sometimes the answer comes to negative percentage when the value in A2 0r B2
is lesser than A1..
All i need is always have a posotive value for the same.. Any formula?
Also if there is something that can keep A1 as constant in both places in
formula by only changing the first cell i.e. A2 or B2, it can be really
helpfull.

.....Thanks....
