Default actual vs plan chart

I have a table of data, let's call it ACTUAL SALES by month, similar to
following:

Business Unit West East North South
Jan09 20 30 15 10
Feb09 10 20 30 40
Mar09 14 16 12 10

I have a table that looks like it, for PLANNED SALES data, with various
numbers for each business unit's planned target for the same periods for
which I have actuals.

What I want to do is (ideally) create a stacked bar chart of the Actuals for
each region (ie, the height of the stack = total actual sales), with a "line"
showing the summarized "planned" or target sales for each region (ie, if the
stacked bar does not reach the total PLAN line, then we are under target).

My second choice would be a stacked line, but would not convery the picture
as nicely. I am using excel 2007.

I can (re)-organize this data however i need to, to make this work, but am
not sure how to do this.

Thanks for any help, guidance!
