Default How do I use integration to work out the area under a curve?

I'm trying to use Excel to work out some targets and I know I want a 4%
reduction over the year- i.e. I had 100 last year and want 96 this year, so
how do I work out how many I need to record in each financial quarter to make
that happen? It wouldn't be one per quarter because that would give me a
'flat-line' target and not a decreasing trajectory. Apparently there's a
formula, possibly something to do with integration and working out the area
under a curve? Can anyone help??!
