This will work, but be warned, if you do not have values in any part of that
range (e.g. if B14 and C15 are blank), they will be considered 0 and will compute as "0 change" for one row. Must be entered with CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER =AVERAGE(C2:C15-B2:B15) "DadAtHome4" wrote in message ...

This is good, how do I express the result in %, i.e. average change from List
Price to Sold Price is x%.

This array formula will work:
=AVERAGE(B1:B15/A1:A15-1) Enter it with CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER, not just the ENTER key.
