Formulas--running balance
 

I have pasted below a problem that I have in setting formulas to give me a
running balance after each expenditure. Can anyone give me some simple
instructions in writing on how to do this?

Hi,
If your original balance ($85,848.82) is in A2 and your first expenditure is
in A4, then in B4 enter:
=IF(A4="","",$A$2-SUM($A$4:$A4)) and copy down.
